Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

A scale model of a school building is 5 inches tall.

Actual size of the school building is 100 feet.

1 feet=12 inches

100 feet=12×100 inches

= 1200 inches

5 inch is representing 1200 inches

1 inch represents 1200/5 inches

1 inch represents 240 inches

or 1 inch represents 12×20 inch

or 1 inch represents 20 feet

Scale of the model is:

1 inch represents 240 inches

1 inch represents 20 feet

ruslelena [56]

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

$(y+850)+y=4000\\y+850+y=4000\\2y=4000-850\\2y=3150$

Dividing both sides by 2;

$\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{3150}{2}\\y=1575$

Putting y=1575 in Eqn 2;

$x=1575+850\\x=2425$

The price of less expensive equipment is $1575.
