Answer:

Number of people who order chicken dinner = 1

Number of people who order the steak dinner = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = number of people who order chicken dinner

y = number of people who order the steak dinner

x + y = 6 (1)

14x + 17y = 99 (2)

From (1)

x = 6 - y

Substitute into (2)

14x + 17y = 99 (2)

14(6 - y) + 17y = 99

84 - 14y + 17y = 99

- 14y + 17y = 99 - 84

3y = 15

y = 15/3

y = 5

Substitute y = 5 into (1)

x + y = 6 (1)

x + 5 = 6

x = 6 - 5

x = 1

Number of people who order chicken dinner = 1

Number of people who order the steak dinner = 5

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Step-by-step explanation:

See the graph below

Process

1.- Find the distance from A to B, B to C, C to D, A to D

Formula

d = $\sqrt{(x2 - x1)^{2} + (y2 - y1)^{2}}$

d AB = $\sqrt{(1 + 3)^{2} + (6 - 5)^{2}} = \sqrt{17}$

dBC = $\sqrt{(-2 -6)^{2} + (3 - 1)^{2}} = \sqrt{68}$

dCD = $\sqrt{(-1 - 3)^{2} + (-3 +2)^{2}} = \sqrt{17}$

dAD = $\sqrt{(-1 + 3)^{2} + (-3 - 5)^{2}} = \sqrt{68}$

2.- Find the perimeter

Perimeter = 2 $\sqrt{17} + 2\sqrt{68}$ = $6\sqrt{17}$ u

3.- Find the area

Area = $\sqrt{17} x \sqrt{68}$

Area = $\sqrt{17x68} = \sqrt{1156} = 34 u^{2}$

Choose as many answers as apply.

Answer:

multiplying a multi-digit number by itself several times (finding the power of a number)
finding a square root
statistical calculations

Step-by-step explanation:

We don't know what your introduction tells you, but the above-listed operations are ones I choose to use a calculator for. I also use a calculator for ordinary arithmetic, such as division by numbers with 2 digits or more. (It is simply faster and requires no scratch paper.)

If statistical calculations are not done with a calculator, they at least require the availability of suitable tables.

___

All of these operations can be done by hand without a calculator, and were in times passed. Lifetimes of effort were involved in generating some of the original math tables for statistics, trig, logarithms, and other functions readily evaluated using a modern calculator.

The dimensions of a figure are doubled, how many times larger will the volume be? Only enter numerical answers

Doss [256]

Answer:if you double all of the dimensions of a rectangular prism, you create a similar prism with a scale factor of 2. The surface area of the similar prism will increase as the square of the scale factor (22 = 4) and the volume will increase as the cube of the scale factor (23 = 8).
