\n" ); document.write( "Let , x= amount inv. at 8%
\n" ); document.write( "And, $7,000 - x = amount inv. at 21%\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "It follows,
\n" ); document.write( "Interest at 8% + Interest at 21% = $764\r
\n" ); document.write( "

\n" ); document.write( "x = $5430.77 amount for 8%
\n" ); document.write( "And, $7,000 - $5430.77 = $1,569.23, amount for 21%\r
