A company has to buy computers and printers. Each computer costs $550 and each printer costs $390. If the company spends $8160 and buys a total of 16 machines, how many of each did it buy?
a. Let Statements:
b. Write the system:

the company bought 12 computers and 4 printers.

Step-by-step explanation:

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

you forgot the options, but i found them anyways, the correct answer is "john wilson believes that words and actions based on the intellect are superior to those based on emotions".

john wilson is depicted as an extremely intelligent man. the point of the excerpt is to make a sort of distinction between emotional and rational intelligence. he happens to have both attributes, but he clearly favors his intellectual gifts. at the same time, because of his religious background, he's a little bit conflicted with this and it makes him ashamed.

hope this !
