Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

They  are taking 12 2 credit courses

The are taking 4  1 credit courses

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 1 credit courses

y = 2 credit courses

The number of courses is 16

x+y = 16

The number of credits is 28 so multiply the course by the number of credits

1x+2y=28

Subtract the first equation from the second equation

x+2y =28

-x-y=-16

-----------------

y = 12

They  are taking 12 2 credit courses

We still need to find the 1 credit courses

x+y = 16

x+12= 16

Subtract 12 from each side

x-12-12 = 16-12

x =4

The are taking 4  1 credit courses
