Jim’s family is choosing whether to go to a restaurant for lunch or for dinner. the cost of a salad is $7 at lunch and $9 at dinner. the cost of a steak is $10 at lunch and $12 at dinner. each person will choose either a salad or a steak regardless of the mealtime. jim calculates the food bill to be $41 if they go during lunch and $51 if they go during dinner. how many people will choose a salad?

3 people will choose salad.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of people choose salad be x and the number of people choose steak be y.

then according to the question we have the following system

Multiply equation (1) by 6 and equation(2)by 5 we get

Subtract (3) from (4), we get

Hence, the number of people choose salad =3.

there are no figures how am i supposed to answer this question

step-by-step explanation:

m∠cdf = 43° , m∠gdf = 114°, m∠gde = 23°, m∠edh = 23° , m∠cdh = 157°

step-by-step explanation:

since, it is given that de bisects the angle gdh ⇒ de divides the angle gdh into two equal angles.

⇒ m∠gde = m∠edh

⇒ 8·x   - 1 = 6·x + 5

⇒ x = 3

so, m∠gde = 8·x - 1 = 23°

and m∠edh = 23°

now, it is given ∠cde is an straight angle so, m∠cde = 180°

⇒ m∠cdf + m∠fdg + m∠gde = 180°

⇒ 43° + m∠fdg + 23° = 180°

⇒ m∠fdg = 114°

again, m∠cde = m∠cdh + m∠edh = 180°

m∠cdh + 23° = 180°

⇒ m∠cdh = 157°
