Answer: 2a – 11 = 35

 Given, the number of charter schools is eleven less than twice the number of alternative schools

The number of charter schools is 35

Therefore, 35 is eleven less than twice the number of alternative schools

 2 X (The number of alternative schools) – 11 = 35

 Let the number of alternative schools be ‘a’

2a – 11 = 35
