Hello there,
Well we are going to start off with the equation to find the slope based on the given points:
Now using the two given points we are going to plug in and solve:
=
= 
From this you know that
is the slope of the equation. However, to find the y-intercept we are going to use y = mx+ b and plug in one of the points to solve:
(-14) =
(-22) + b
(-14) = (-11) + b
-3 = b
That means that the y-intercept is at (0, -3). Lastly, we are just going to plug all this into the slope-intercept form:
y =
- 3
Hope I helped,

The answer would be x=-4.
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

How many alternative schools are in the county?
</span><span>
The answer is: There are 26 alternative schools.</span>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
2(n+3) - 4 < 6n
2n+6-4 < 6n
2n + 2 < 6n
2 < 4n
½ < n
