following solution worked for me:-

You haven't added weightSum and orientation values for LinearLayout.

You don't have to use Recyclerview in scroll view. – Arda Kazancı Sep 02 '20 at 13:57

You can use a NestedScrollView instead of the ScrollView. And also put your RecyclerView as well as the LinearLayout inside the NestedScrollView. And enable android:nestedScrollingEnabled=true. Should work for you.

<NestedScrollView 
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:nestedScrollingEnabled=true>
      <LinearLayout 
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:orientation="vertical">

<androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView
        android:id="@+id/recyleview"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="0dp"
        app:layout_constraintBottom_toTopOf="@id/linearlayoutorder"
        app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="@id/relative" />

    <LinearLayout
        android:id="@+id/linearlayoutorder"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="100dp"
        android:background="#000000"
        android:backgroundTintMode="@color/colorPrimary"
        android:orientation="horizontal"
        android:weightSum="2"
        app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent">

        <TextView
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_gravity="center"
            android:layout_weight="1"
            android:text="TOTAL" />

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/totalidcost"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_gravity="right|center"
            android:layout_weight="1"
            android:textAlignment="textEnd"
            tools:ignore="RtlCompat" />
    </LinearLayout>
</LinearLayout>

And in your java class where you have your recyclerview set recyclerView.setNestedScrollingEnabled(true or false);

i did nestedscrolling false inside recyclerview i got error ==> Caused by: android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #34: ScrollView can host only one direct child Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: ScrollView can host only one direct child — IRON MAN, Sep 03 '20 at 05:03
Just create a linearLayout or a RelativeLayout as a parent of your view inside the nestedScrollView. Then you should be fine. I will update my answer with the hierarchy. — KalanaChinthaka, Sep 03 '20 at 07:04

Use ConstraintLayout like this way, Here is full xml code what you need

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent">

    <RelativeLayout
        android:id="@+id/relative"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent">

        <androidx.appcompat.widget.Toolbar
            android:id="@+id/toolbartable"
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:background="@color/colorPrimaryDark"
            app:collapseIcon="@drawable/back" />

    </RelativeLayout>

    <androidx.recyclerview.widget.RecyclerView
        android:id="@+id/recyleview"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="0dp"
        app:layout_constraintBottom_toTopOf="@id/linearlayoutorder"
        app:layout_constraintTop_toBottomOf="@id/relative" />

    <LinearLayout
        android:id="@+id/linearlayoutorder"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="100dp"
        android:background="#000000"
        android:backgroundTintMode="@color/colorPrimary"
        android:orientation="horizontal"
        android:weightSum="2"
        app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent">

        <TextView
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_gravity="center"
            android:layout_weight="1"
            android:text="TOTAL" />

        <TextView
            android:id="@+id/totalidcost"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_gravity="right|center"
            android:layout_weight="1"
            android:textAlignment="textEnd"
            tools:ignore="RtlCompat" />
    </LinearLayout>
</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>

linearlayout is not getting displayed below recyclerview
