You receive $5ooo. You decide to invest the money in a one-year bond paying 2% interest and in a one-year certificate of deposit paying 6% interest. Let m represent the amount of money invested in the one-year bond. Write a function that represents the total amount of money T that you have after one year. Simplify the function.
---------------
Let amount invested at 2% be "m"
Interest on that money will be 0.02m dollars
----------
Amount invested at 6% will be "5000-m"
Interest on that money will be 0.06(5000-m)=300-0.06m
-----
EQUATION:
Total = principal + interest + interest
T = 5000 + 0.02m + 300-0.06m
T = 5300 - 0.04m
