A woman invested 4 times as much at 2% as she did at 6%. The total amount of interest she earns in 1 year from both accounts is $560. How much did she invest at each rate? \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Equations:
\n" ); document.write( "Quantity: x - 4y = 0
\n" ); document.write( "Interest:0.06x + 0.02y = 560
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply Quantity by 6
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply Interest by 100
\n" ); document.write( "6x - 24y = 0
\n" ); document.write( "6x + 2y = 56000
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract and solve for \"y\":
\n" ); document.write( "26y = 56000
\n" ); document.write( "y = $2153.85
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for \"x\":
\n" ); document.write( "x = $8115.39
