Lets say that J is for Jennys messages, B is for Boris’ and E is for Erics (or Ericas?).
79 = J + B + E
J = E - 6
B = 3E
Since both Jenny’s and Boris’ number of text messages has some kind of relation to Eric’s number of messages, we can say that:
79 = E - 6 (Jenny) + 3E (Boris) + E (Eric), so:
79 = E - 6 + 3E + E /combine like terms
79 = 5E - 6 /add 6 to both sides
79 + 6 = 5E /switch sides + combine like terms
5E = 85 /divide both sides by 5
E = 85/5
E = 17
So, Eric sent 17 messages. Lets get back to those equations we made for Jenny and Boris:
J = E - 6 = 17 - 6 = 11
B = 3E = 3 * 17 = 51
And we can check if it adds up: 51 + 11 + 17 = 79, which is what we were supposed to get.
Notice, the third decimal place is 9 in 3.469644...
and after the 469 there's a 6, that means we can round that 469 to a 470
3.470.
Since this is in point-slope form, you know one of the points, which is (1,7), and you know the slope, which is -3. So you can plot (1,7) on the graph and then use the slope to plot more points by going down 3 and right 1, or up 3 and left 1.

Step-by-step explanation:
what i find useful is if you flip the percentage of whatever, it makes it pretty easy. in this situation itd be 50% of 8, which is 4. for the total price, you just add the tax to the price
