document.write( "Question 42159: Mr. Simon invests a total of $7003 in two savings accounts. One account yields 7.5% simple interest and the other 8.5% simple interest. He would like to find the amount placed in each account if a total of $582.33 in interest is received after one year. Write a system of linear equations to express this problem.Please explain thanks.\r

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
An \"x\" amount of money will be invested in 7.5% and the rest, \"7003+-+x\" will be invested is 8.5% ....
\n" ); document.write( "\"y+=+%28x%29%280.075%29+%2B+%287003+-+x%29%280.085%29\" where \"y\" equals total amount of interest and Interest=Principle*Rate*Time
\n" ); document.write( "\"582.33+=+%28x%29%280.075%29+%2B+%287003+-+x%29%280.085%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"582.33+=+0.075x+%2B+595.255+%2B+0.085x\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"-12.925+=+0.16x\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"-80.78125+=+x\"
\n" ); document.write( "You can not place a negative amount of cash in an account, so there is no way.
\n" ); document.write( "The linear Equations:
\n" ); document.write( "\"y+=+0.16x+%2B+595.255\"
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "\"y+=+582.33\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+graph%28+1000%2C+1200%2C+-100%2C+20%2C+-10%2C+600%2C+0.16x+%2B+595.255%2C+582.33%29+\"
