2) The combined price of the boat and trailer is $15,000

Both statements together are sufficient.

From (2), we know the combined price and from (1), we know the difference of the prices; thus, with the help of two linear equations, we can get the unique values of the two variables. Sufficient.

The correct answer: C

Hope this helps!
