Answer:
8.4 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
The error is in the resolution of the proportion. In fact, the initial proportion is correct:

where x is the total cost. However, the following step of the resolution is wrong. In fact, the correct resolution is the following:
- Multiplying by x on both sides:

- Multiplying by 3.5 no both sides:

And now we can find x:

So, the total cost is 8.4 dollars.
It's called "solve the equation for 'y' ". That means move things
around so that you end up with 'y' all alone on one side, and
everything else on the other side.
You started with 9x - 7y = -7
Subtract 9x from each side: - 7y = -9x - 7
Divide each side by -7 : y = 9/7 x + 1
