no book Thanks so very very much fro your time!! Answer by checkley71(8403) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! .09X+.12(14000-X)=1290
.09X+1680-.12X=1290
-.03X=1290-1680
-.03X=-390
X=-390/-.03
X=13000 AMOUNT INVESTED @ 8%
PROOF
.09*13000+.12(14000-13000)=1290
1170+.12*1000=1290
1170+120=1290
1290=1290
