Question 5066: Please help I really stuck on this one!! A loan officer at a bank has $1,000,000 to lend and is required to obtain an average return of 18% per year. If he can lend at the rate of 19% and the rate of 16%, how much can he lend at the 16% rate and still meet his requirement? Please I've tried a MILLION ways..I just dont get it??? Thanks Caroline Answer by rapaljer(4671) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let x = amount invested at 16%. The rest of the $1,000,000, which is
1000000-x = amountinvested at 19%. The total investment must be 18% of $1000000.
