Let the first amount = x,
First interest = x(0.09)
Second interest = (32000+3x)(0.11)
Now, given that the sum of interests = 34180:



x = 73000
He invested $73000 for the first time and 3(73000)+32000 = $251000 for the second time.

------
Int. + Int = Int
0.09x + 0.11(3x+32000) = 34180
-----
9x + 33x + 352000 = 3418000
-----
42x - 3066000
---
x = $73000
