\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "IT=P1in + P2in
\n" ); document.write( "885=7000(.075)(1) +P2(.09)(1)
\n" ); document.write( "P2=4000dollars is the answer \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "checking I=4000(.09)(1)
\n" ); document.write( "I=360 dollars
\n" ); document.write( "I=(7000*.075*1)
\n" ); document.write( "I=525 dollars
\n" ); document.write( "IT=525+360
