    A + B = 10 ... A = 10 - B

    80A + 30B = 400

    80 (10 - B) + 30B = 400

    800 - 80B + 30B = 400

    -80B + 30B = 400 - 800

    -50B = - 400

    B = - 400/-50

    B = 8 < = = = there are 8 model B printers

    A + B = 10

    A + 8 = 10

    A = 10 - 8

    A = 2 < = = = there are 2 model A printers
