How can $3,960 be invested, part of it at 4% and the remainder at 5%, so that the two investments will produce the same amount of interest?
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "0.04x - 0.05(3960-x) = 0
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "4x - 5(3960-x)
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "4x -5*3960 + 5x = 0
\n" ); document.write( "9x = 5*3960
\n" ); document.write( "x = $2200 (amt. to invest at 4%)
\n" ); document.write( "-----------
\n" ); document.write( "3960 - x = 3960-2200 = $1760 (amt. to invest at 5%)
