Otis had a salad for $4.50,a sandwich for $6.25,and a drink. The tax for the meal was $0.54.What is the price for the drink. Meal tax:4.4%

Answer is a not really sure tho

You move the constant to the right side and change its sign to be 9z= -6 -8. that’s the first step.the second step would be calculate the difference of -8-6 to get -14. you equation should now be 9z=-14the last step is to divide both sides by 9 to get z=-14/9hope this
