<span>-5x-2y=2
6x-2y=24

Notice that -2y appears in both equations.  Multiply the first equation by -1, obtaining 

5x + 2y = -2               and then adding the second equation to this result:
6x  -2t   = 24
-----------------
11x        = 22, so x = 2.  Now subst. 2 for x in either of the original equations to find the value of y.

6(2) - 2y = 2 becomes 2y = 12-2, or 2y = 10, or y = 5.

Solution is (2,5).  You MUST check this, however.</span>

Answer: B


Step-by-step explanation:

The shorter arrow is the hour while the longer arrow is the minutes. Since the shorter arrow is between one and two, the hour would be one. The clock goes by minutes, and each of the dashes are a minute. There are 60 dashes for 60 minutes. From 12 to 1, it's 5 minutes. It's the same for 1 to 2, 2 to 3, and so on. So 7 × 5 is 35 + 4 is 39, where the longer arrow is placed. So the time is 1:39.
