<span>multiply the first equation by 5 and 2nd by -7 and you get
35x-30y=-5
-35x+28y=-7
now you can cancel out the x's and you get
-2y=-12
so
y=6
now you can just plug y=6 into one of the original equations and you will see that x turns out to be 5
Hope thats okay</span>
Answer:
<h2>The value of a is

.</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
At the time of purchase, the value of the antique is $200.
After one year the value will increase 10%.
Hence, after one year, the value of the antique will be
= 220.
Similarly, after two year, the value will be
.
Thus, 222 years after purchase, the value of the antique will be
.
Answer:
Slope, m = 1100
y-intercept,c = 2491
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following in the question:

The above gives the altitude of the airplane above the sea level in feet(y) after x minutes since the take off.
Comparing the above equation, to a general linear equation, we have,

where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.
Comparing we get,
Slope, m = 1100
y-intercept,c = 2491
Interpretation:
- The slope of equation tells us about the rate of change of function with unit increase in value of x. Thus, the altitude of airplane increases 1100 feet when the time increases by 1 minute.
- The y-intercept is the value of y when x is 0. Thus, the altitude of airplane is 2491 feet when the airplane has not taken off.
