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>

2x + 7= -11 please help
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

x = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

You are solving for x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

First, subtract 7 from both sides:

2x + 7 (-7) = -11 (-7)

2x = -11 - 7

2x = -18

Next, divide 2 from both sides:

(2x)/2 = (-18)/2

x = -18/2

x = -9

x = -9 is your answer.

У - 6x = ||<br> -77<br> - 2x-3y=-7
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

<h2>x= 37/16</h2><h3>y=199/8</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

1....y=11+6x

-77-2x+3y=-7

replace y by ..1..

so   -77-2x+3(11+6x)=-7

-77-2x+33+18x=-7

-44+16x=-7

16x=37

y=11+6x

replace x by 37/16

y=11+6*37/16

y=199/8
