Two quantities invested, x and 7200-x.\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"0.10%2Ax=%287200-x%29%2A%280.08%29\"$ ;
\n" ); document.write( "which is ONE equation.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You could assign the variables differently, like $\"r%2Bs=7200\"$ and then $\"r%2A%280.10%29\"$ and $\"s%2A%280.08%29\"$ for the interest quantities. \n" ); document.write( "
