The price of less expensive equipment is $1575.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let,
Price of one equipment = x
Price of other equipment = y
According to given statement;
x+y=4000 Eqn 1
x = y+850 Eqn 2
Putting Eqn 2 in Eqn 1
Dividing both sides by 2;
Putting y=1575 in Eqn 2;
The price of less expensive equipment is $1575.

The answer is (2,0)
Explanation
So I’m gonna use substitution to help me solve this problem. I’m gonna solve for x.
X-y=2
+y. +y
X= y + 2
Now that we have solved for x we are going to plug it into the first equation!
Shown like this
Y+2 - 10y = 2
Then we solve it as a normal problem
So first we combine light terms
-9y+2=2
Then we isolate the variable
-9y+2=2
-2. -2
-9y = 0
Then we divide by -9 on both sides
-9y /-9 = 0 / -9
Y = 0
Now that we solved for y we plug it into one the equations to get the x value!
X - 0 = 2
X=2
The solution is (2,0)
