SOLUTION: alex deposited a total of 25000 in bank a and bank b. two banks pay simple interest rates of 0.6% and 0.65% per annum. if the amount of interest he earned from each bank is the sam

Algebra ->  Coordinate Systems and Linear Equations -> SOLUTION: alex deposited a total of 25000 in bank a and bank b. two banks pay simple interest rates of 0.6% and 0.65% per annum. if the amount of interest he earned from each bank is the sam      Log On

Let x be the amount invested at 0.65%.


Then the amount invested at 0.6% is  2500-x.


The condition gives us this equation


    0.065x = 0.06*(2500-x).


Solve it and find x.  Then evaluate 2500-x.
