Binary Bob Needs Your Assistance

Bob's Dilemma
Binary Bob is considering going back to school to learn computer programming, however, Bob has been given some jumbled course information.
Bob needs your help so he can make an informed decision. If he fails, I suppose he will just go golfing!
Using only the clues below, match each of the course names to its associated cost, to the number of weeks length of the course.
Clue: 1
The Visual Basic Course costs $2.00 more than the course that is 2 weeks long.
Clue: 2
The $3.00 course is 4 weeks long.
Clue: 3
Of the C# course and the $6.00 course, one is 7 weeks long and the other is 4 weeks long.
Clue: 4
- The Fortran course costs $4.00.
Note: Remember, no option in any category will ever be used more than once.

You might want to credit the source of your image. Looks a lot like this one.

My company purchased this image along with the rest of the bundle from DreamsTime, and according to their terms, we can use the images as we wish. That's what we buy thousands of credits for. :) It is nice though to have someone looking out for other designers, like myself. I found a business card of ours on PSD key torrent site last week. Still had our company name on it!

Thanks! Not to be paranoid (just trying to keep the site clean), but do you have permission to use the image for a purpose outside of the company that purchased the image?
