Let x be the amount invested in fund B at 5%; then the amount invested in fund A at 7% is x-7000. \n" ); document.write( "The interest from fund B is 5% of x, \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "The interest from fund A is 7% of (x-7000), \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "The total interest from the two investments was $2150: \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "Solve the equation to find the amount x invested in fund B; the amount invested in fund A is $7000 less than that amount. \n" ); document.write( " |
