-.10x+.07(8000-x)=220
\n" ); document.write( "-.10x+560-.07x=220
\n" ); document.write( "-.17x=220-560
\n" ); document.write( "-.17x=-340
\n" ); document.write( "x=-340/-.17
\n" ); document.write( "x=$2,000 invested @ 10%
\n" ); document.write( "8,000-2,000=6,000 invested @ 7%.
\n" ); document.write( "Proof:
\n" ); document.write( "-.10*2,000+.07*6,000=220
\n" ); document.write( "-200+420=220
\n" ); document.write( "220=220\r
