\n" ); document.write( "S = amount at 6%; E = amount at 8% = S+$800

\n" ); document.write( "The following is given in case you have trouble:
\n" ); document.write( "0.06S + (0.08)(S+$800)=$120
\n" ); document.write( "0.06S+0.08S+$64=$120
\n" ); document.write( "0.14S=$56
\n" ); document.write( "S=$400
\n" ); document.write( "ANSWER 1: You have $400 in the 6% account.
