You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x = number of 2-hr classes
y = number of 5-hr classes
---
46*2x + 46*5y = 4692
x + y = 36
---
put the system of linear equations into standard form
---
92x + 230y = 4692
x + y = 36
---
copy and paste the above standard form linear equations in to this solver:
