Chapter 1, Problem 1.13PE

(Algebra: solve 2 × 2 linear equations) You can use Cramer’s rule to solve the following 2 × 2 system of linear equation provided that ad − be is not 0:

$\begin{array}{c}ax+by=e\\ cx+dy=f\end{array}x=\frac{ed-bf}{ad-bc}y=\frac{af-ec}{ad-bc}$

Write a program that solves the following equation and displays the value for x and y: (Hint: replace the symbols in the formula with numbers to compute x and y. This exercise can be done in Chapter 1 without using materials in later chapters.)

$\begin{array}{l}3.4x+50.2y=44.5\\ 2.1x+.55y=5.9\end{array}$
