A student takes out a total of $5000 in three loans: one subsidized, one unsubsidized and one from the parents of the students. The subsidized loan is $200 more than the combined total of the subsidized and parent loans. The unsubsidized loan is twice the parent loan. Find the amount of each loan.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Parent loan = x
\n" ); document.write( "unsubsidised loan = 2x\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The subsidised loan = 3x+200
\n" ); document.write( "x+2x+3x+200=5000
\n" ); document.write( "6x+200=5000
\n" ); document.write( "6x=5000-200
\n" ); document.write( "6x=4800
\n" ); document.write( "/6
\n" ); document.write( "x=800 ----- Parents
\n" ); document.write( "Unsubsidized loan 2x = 1600\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "subsidized loan = 3x+200
\n" ); document.write( "=3*800+200
\n" ); document.write( "=2600\r
