\n" ); document.write( "Let x = amount ($) loaned at 6%

\n" ); document.write( "18000-x = amount ($) loaned at 14%
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( ".06x + .14(18000-x) = 2000
\n" ); document.write( ".06x + 2520-.14x = 2000
\n" ); document.write( "2520-.08x = 2000
\n" ); document.write( "-.08x = -520
\n" ); document.write( "x = $6500 (answer)
