Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
Since x=1, we can simplify the equation to 9+7y=-12.
To find the value of 7y, we first have to find what is missing.
-12-9=-21, so 7y has to be equal to -21. -21/7 equals -3, so y=-3.
Divide sales tax amount over the item's cost
23.1 / 330 = 0.07
Therefore the sales tax is 7%
The answer is 1200
3/5=x/2,000
2,000/5=400
3 x 400=1200
Let x = the number of alternative schools.
Therefore, 2x - 4 = 48.
2x -4 +4 = 48 + 4
2x = 52
x = 26
Therefore, there are 26 alternative schools(You could check this answer by substituting x=26 into the equation above.).
