\n" ); document.write( "Let x be the amount invested at 3.4% interest
\n" ); document.write( "Then 5500-x is the amount invested at 15% interest

\n" ); document.write( "The total interest is to be $477:

\n" ); document.write( "\".034%28x%29%2B.15%285500-x%29=477\"
\n" ); document.write( "\".034x%2B8250-.15x=477\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"8250-477=%28.15-.034%29x\"

\n" ); document.write( "Finish using basic algebra and a calculator....
