Multiply all terms in the first equation by 2 and all terms in the second by 3.
You should obtain:
6x + 16y = 34
-6x + 27y = 9
------------------
43y =43, and so y = 1. Subbing 1 for y in the first eq'n, we get
3x + 8(1) = 17, or 3x = 9, or x = 3.
The solution is (3, 1).

Answer:
0.075 inches per year
Step-by-step explanation:
The average rate of change is measured as
( difference in diameter ) ÷ ( difference in years )
= ( 251 - 248 ) ÷ ( 2005 - 1965 )
= 3 inches ÷ 40 years
= 0.075 inches per year
