You can put this solution on YOUR website!
x = amount invested at 9%
y = amount invested at 4%
---
x + y = 16000
0.09x + 0.04y = 900
---
put the system of linear equations into standard form
---
x + y = 16000
0.09x + 0.04y = 900
---
copy and paste the above standard form linear equations in to this solver:
