The music store will charge $5 for a yearly membership.

Explanation:

Let the cost per vinyl album be 'a'

Let the yearly membership cost be 'b'

Given that,

4a + b = 35

7a + b = 57.5

9a + b = 72.5

We can take any 2 equations from the above,

(4a + b = 35 ) - (7a +b =57.5)

4a + b - 7a - b = 35 - 57.5

-3a = -22. 5

3a = 22.5

a = 7.5

The cost of each vinyl album is $7.5

4a + b = 35

4(7.5) + b = 35

30 + b = 35

b = 35 - 30

b = 5

The cost of the yearly membership is $5

The music store will charge $5 for a yearly membership.
