Part of a $8, 000 inheritance was invested at 10% interest and the rest was in- vested at 12% interest. If the annual income from these investments is $810 , how much was invested at each rate?
--------
Equation:
int + int = 810
0.10*x + 0.12(8000-x) = 810
10x + 12*8000 - 12x = 81000
----------------------------------
-2x = 81000 - 96000
-2x = -15000
x = $7500 (amt. invested at 10%)
8000-x = $500 (amt. invested at 12%)
------------
