Is there a way to calculate algebraic equations in Excel?
I have the equation:
50a+100b=60 and
100a+50b=45
I know how to solve these by hand, but is there a way to solve them in Excel?

Look at Tools Solver. It solved those equations easily.

For example, blank out A1 and B1, and put the following formula into
C1:

=50*A1 + 100*B1

Click on Tools Solver, set Target Cell to $C$1, set Equal to Value
of 60, and set By Changing Cells to $A$1:$B$1. Then click on Solve.
