Let x be what he invested at 7%.
\n" ); document.write( "Thus 2x is what was invested at 3%.
\n" ); document.write( "So we have
\n" ); document.write( "(.07)x + (.03)(2x) = 390
\n" ); document.write( "multiply by 100 to clear decimals
\n" ); document.write( "7x + 6x = 39000
\n" ); document.write( "13x = 39000
\n" ); document.write( "x = $3000 at 7%
\n" ); document.write( "2x = $6000 at 3%
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
