Martin purchased company ABC's stock and invested the balance in his money market account. ABC's stock yielded 10% last year and his money market account yielded 7% last year. If Martin's initial investments amount to $21,000 and the annual income is $1680, how much money is invested in stock and how much is invested in his money market account?
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Equations:
\n" ); document.write( "Quantity: S + M = 21000 dollars
\n" ); document.write( "Interest:0.10S + 0.07M = 1680 dollars
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply thru Quantity by 10
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply thru Interest by 100
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "10S + 10M = 210000
\n" ); document.write( "10S + 7 M = 168000
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract 2nd from 1st and solve for \"M\":
\n" ); document.write( "3M = 42000
\n" ); document.write( "M = 14000 (amt invested in money market
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Since S + M = 21000, S = 7000 (amt invested in stocks)
