Ana invested 50,000. Part of it she invested in a mine stock from which she hoped to receive a 20 percent return per yr. The rest she invested in a bank stock which was paying 6 percent per year. If she received $400 more the first year from the bank stock than from the mining stock, how much did she invest in each stock.
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "Ana invested 50,000.
\n" ); document.write( "mine stock $ x------- 20 %
\n" ); document.write( "bank stock $ (50000-x)-----6 %
\n" ); document.write( "If she received $400 more the first year from the bank stock than from the mining stock, how much did she invest in each stock.
\n" ); document.write( "Bank stock interest - mine stock interest = 400
\n" ); document.write( "(50,000-x)*0.06 - 0.20x = 400
\n" ); document.write( "multiply by 100
\n" ); document.write( "(50,000-x)*6-20x=400*100
\n" ); document.write( "300000-6x-20x=40000
\n" ); document.write( "-26x=-260,000
\n" ); document.write( "/-26
\n" ); document.write( "x= 10000
\n" ); document.write( "$10,000 money invested in mine stock
\n" ); document.write( "$40,000 in bank stock
