Answer:

3 30 page printers, 10 70 page printers

Explanation:

x + y = 13

40x+70y = 820

Solving for y in first equation gives: y = 13 - x

Plug into second equation: 40x + 70(13 - x) = 820

40x + 910 - 70x = 820

-30 x = -90

x = 3

Plug into original equation: 3 + y = 13

y must = 10.

So, the company owns 3 thirty page presses, and 10 70 page presses,
