Answer:the company bought 12 computers and 4 printers.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of computers that the company bought.
Let y represent the number of printers that the company bought.
The company buys a total of 16 machines. It means that
x + y = 16
Each computer costs $550 and each printer costs $390. If the company spends $8160 for all the computers and printers that was bought, it means that
550x + 390y = 8160 - - - - - - - - - - 1
Substituting x = 16 - y into equation 1, it becomes
550(16 - y) + 390y = 8160
8800 - 550y + 390y = 8160
- 550y + 390y = 8160 - 8800
- 160y = - 640
y = - 640/ - 160
y = 4
Substituting y = 4 into x = 16 - y, it becomes
x = 16 - 4
x = 12
Answer:
A, B, C, and F is your possible answers
The quotient of means to divide so it could be any symbol and they could switch places when dividing.
F=5 dollar bills
t=twent dollar bills
38 total bills
f+t=38
400 in bills
400=5f+20t
we have
f+t=38
5f+20t=400
multipy first equation by -5 and add to second equation
-5f-5t=-190
5f+20t=400 +
0f+15t=210
15t=210
divide both sides by 15
t=14
subsitute
t+f=38
15+f=38
f=23
23 five dolar bills
15 twenty dollar bills
