\n" ); document.write( "Equations:
\n" ); document.write( "E = T + 1400
\n" ); document.write( "0.08E = 0.10T + 45
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute for \"E\" and solve for \"T\":
\n" ); document.write( "0.08(T + 1400) = 0.10T + 45
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply thru by 100:
\n" ); document.write( "8T + 8*1400 = 10T + 4500
\n" ); document.write( "2T = 6700
\n" ); document.write( "T = $3350 (amt. invested at 10%)
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "E = 3350+1400 = $4750 (amt. invested at 8%)
