let him invest x in cd's \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "0.03x +0.09*95000 is the interest he will get\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The total investment is x+95000. 4% of this amount must be equal to the interest he will get without investment in cd's\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "4% of ( x+95000)= 0.04 * (x+95000)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "0.03x+0.09*95000 = 0.04 * ( x+95000)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "0.03x + 8550 = 0.04x +3800\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "0.01x= 8550-3800\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "0.01x= 4750\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x= 4750 / 0.01\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "x= 475000 He has to invest $475,000 on 3% cd's.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
