-----------
I'll do one and leave the other to you.
----------------------
Let amt invested at 8% be "x" ; interest is 0.08x dollars
--------
Amt invest at 7% is "22000-x ; interest is 0.07(22000-x) = 1540-0.07x dollars
---------------------
EQUATION:
interest + interest = 1710 dollars
0.08x + 1540-0.07x = 1710
0.01x = 170
x = $17000 (amt. invested at 8%)
22000-x = 5000 (amt invested at 7%)
=================
