\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "interest + Interest = interest
\n" ); document.write( "0.04x + 0.05(10,000-x) = 440
\n" ); document.write( "------
\n" ); document.write( "4x + 50,000 - 5x = 44000
\n" ); document.write( "-x = 6000
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "x = $6000 (amt. invested at 4%)
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "10,000-x = $4000 (amt. invested at 5%)
