1. Let's call the number of carter school: "x" and "y" the number of alternative school.  Then, you have that:

 - T<span>he number of charter schools is 4 less than twice the number of alternative schools.
</span> - T<span>here are 48 charter schools in the country.

 2. So, you have:

 x=2y-4  (i)

 x=48  (ii)

 3. Then, when you substitute x=48 into the equation (i), you obtain:
</span>
 x=2y-4
<span> 48=2y-4

 4. Now, you must clear "y, as below:

 48+4=2y
 2y=52
 y=52/2
 y=26
 </span><span>
 How many alternative schools are in the county?
</span><span>
 The answer is: There are 26 alternative schools.</span>

Can someone help please
Ira Lisetskai [31]
Hello there! I can help you! The formula for compound interest is P(1 + r)^t, where P= principal (initial amount), r = interest rate (in decimal form), and t = time (in years). Let's do this step by step. First off, we add the rate into 1. 4% is the interest rate (0.04 in decimal form). 1 + 0.04 is 1.04. Now, what we will do is raise that number to the 2nd power, because the time that elapses is 2 years. 1.04² is 1.0816. That's that. Now, multiply 7,500 to find the total amount of money. 1.0816 * 7,500 is 8,112. There. Toby's savings account balance in 2 years is £8,112.

Note: To solve for compound interest questions like it, add 1 to the percentage rate in decimal form, raise that number to a power based on the number of years (for example, raise the number to the 7th power if we are looking for the balance after 7 years), and then multiply that number by the starting amount. After you raise the number by a power, there may be a lot of numbers behind it. Whatever you do, DO NOT delete the number. Keep it there and multiply it by the principal.

Help me pls!<br> find x and hurry im under a time limit
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

x = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the 48° angle, we find out that the angle opposite of angle y° is also 48° according to the corresponding angles theorem. Then, you would subtract 48 from 180 to get the degrees of angle y, which would be 132°. Next, you need to subtract 132 from 180 to get the angle measure of the (5x - 17)° angle. (180 - 132 = 48) Once you have done that, all you have to do now is figure out what value of x makes it equal to the degree measure you found by subtracting 132 from 180. I tried it with x = 13, which came out as a correct answer. So x must be 13.

(5x - 17)°

(5(13) - 17)°

(65 - 17)°

(48)°

48°

The angle equals 48° and x equals 13.
