OK, this is my homework asignment that I am working on and having trouble getting started. I believe I can write code to solve using cramers rule however, I dont know how to prompt the user to enter the number of equations/unknowns, between 2 and 5. Then Im not sure how to prompt the user again for them to enter the constants and coefficents for each equation. If yall could give me any insight on how to do this I would be very grateful.

To prompt a user to enter a value, try:
x = input('Enter the number of equations (from 2 to 5): \n')

@Jacob - If you will allow input like that, then you will need to write custom code that can parse it. I will suggest that task is well beyond your current capabilities, if you don't even know how to use input. Why? Because you will need to write code that can find terms like 4x, or perhaps 3.14y, and recognize there is a missing multiplication in there. Worse, how about an expression like this: 2x + 1e4y = 1.2e-3.
I would strongly suggest you limit your problem, to be able to handle the case where the equations are entered in a simple way as just a numeric vector of coefficients. Learn to walk before you try to run.

Ok, @John D'Errico how would you suggest doing it. This is my first semester of coding and I'm still learning the basics.
