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

write and equation of the line parallel to the line  2 x + 4 y = 20 2 x + 4 y = 20 and containing the point  ( −
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope intercept form as

y = mx + c

Where

m represents the slope of the line

c represents the y intercept

The equation of the given line is

2x + 4y = 20

4y = - 2x + 20

Dividing through by 4, it becomes

y = - x/2 + 5

Comparing with the slope intercept form, slope = - 1/2

If two lines are parallel, it means that they have the same slope. Therefore, the slope of the line passing through (- 6, 3) is - 1/2

To determine the y intercept, we would substitute m = - 1/2, x = - 6 and y = 3 into y = mx + c. It becomes

3 = - 1/2 × - 6 + c

3 = 3 + c

c = 3 - 3 = 0

The equation becomes

y = - x/2
