X=-2 and y=3.
The first step we take is to substitute the value for y from the second equation into the first equation:
4x+5(3x+9)=7
This is justified by substitution. The next step is:
4x+5*3x+5*9=7
4x+15x+45=7
This is justified by the distributive property. The next step is:
19x+45=7
This is justified by addition of like terms. The next step is:
19x+45-45=7-45
19x=-38
This is justified by the subtraction property of equality. The next step is:
19x/19 = -38/19
x=-2
This is justified by the division property of equality. The next step is:
y=3(-2)+9
y=-6+9
y=3
This is justified by substitution, multiplication and addition, in that order.

Answer:
72 stamps
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we're looking to find the number of stamps that AREN'T foreign, so we have to subtract 68% from 100%.
Now, we know that 32% of the stamps are NOT foreign. So, next, we:
- Multiply 32 by 225.
- Divide the product of 32 and 225 by 100
Therefore, the answer is 72 stamps.
