Answer:

The average sallary of a Master's is 60 thousand and of a Bachellor's is 53 thousand.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem we first need to attribute variables to the unkown quantities. We will call the average salary of Master's "x" and the average salary of a Bachellor's "y". The first information the problem gives us is:

x = 2*y - 46

The second one is:

x + y = 113

We now have two equations and two variables, so we can solve the system. To do that we will use the value for x from the first equation on the second one. We have:

2*y - 46 + y = 113

3*y = 113 + 46

3*y = 159

y = 159/3 = 53

x = 2*(53) - 46 = 60

The average sallary of a Master's is 60 thousand and of a Bachellor's is 53 thousand.
