.08x+.03(45,000-x)=2,850
\n" ); document.write( ".08x+1,350-.03x=2,850
\n" ); document.write( ".05x=2,850-1,350
\n" ); document.write( ".05x=1,500
\n" ); document.write( "x=1,500/.05
\n" ); document.write( "x=30,000 amount invested @ 8%.
\n" ); document.write( "45,000-30,000=15,000 amount invested @ 3%.
\n" ); document.write( "proof:
\n" ); document.write( ".08*30,000+.03*15,000=2,850
