Your family goes to a souther-style restaurant for dinner. there are 6 people in your family. some order the chicken dinner for 14$ and some order the steak for 17$. if the total bill was $99, how many people ordered each dinner?

1 person ordered chicken dinner and 5 persons steak.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the

Number of people who ordered chicken dinner = x

Number of people who ordered steak = y

Given that there are 6 people in your family and the total bill was $99. Also, cost of chicken dinner is 14$ and cost of the steak is 17$

Then,

x + y = 6 Equation 1

14x + 17y = 99 Equation 2

y = 6 - x

14x + 17(6 - x) = 99

14x - 17x + 102 = 99

-3x = 99 - 102

-3x = -3

x = 1

y = 6 - 1

y = 5

Therefore, 1 person ordered chicken dinner and 5 persons steak.

5x+2x=49

7x=49

x=7. 35 apples
