Let x = amount in 2% yielding acct.
\n" ); document.write( " Then 20000-x = amount in 10% yielding acct.
\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(.02)(x) + (.10)(20000-x) = 1040\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Multiply out, and solve for x, and 20000-x:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "12000, 8000\r
