I am so confused! Answer by TimothyLamb(4379) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! ---
x + y = 32
8x + 16y = 14*32
---
put the system of linear equations into standard form
---
x + y = 32
8x + 16y = 448
---
copy and paste the above standard form linear equations in to this solver:
