Total amount of money invested: $2500
\n" ); document.write( "x+y=2500,
\n" ); document.write( "Total yearly interest for the two accounts is: $113
\n" ); document.write( "0.02*x+0.09*y=113
\n" ); document.write( "x=2500-y
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute for x
\n" ); document.write( "0.02*(2500-y)+0.09*y=113
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply out
\n" ); document.write( "50-0.02*y+0.09*y=113
\n" ); document.write( "Combine like terms.
\n" ); document.write( "0.07*y=63
\n" ); document.write( "Isolate y
\n" ); document.write( "y=$900.00 at 9% earns $81 interest
\n" ); document.write( "x=2500-y
\n" ); document.write( "Calculate x
\n" ); document.write( "x=$1600.00 at 2% earns $32 interest
\n" ); document.write( "Check
\n" ); document.write( "0.02*1600+0.09*900=113
\n" ); document.write( "32+81=113
\n" ); document.write( "113=113
