You can put this solution on YOUR website! .08x+.18(10000-x)=1000
.08x+1800-.18x=1000
-.1x=1000-1800
-.1x=-800
x=-800/-.1
------------------------------------------------------
x=8000 amount loaned @ 8%.
-----------------------------------------------------
10000-8000=2000 loaned @ 18%.
proof
8000*.08+2000*.18=1000
640+360=1000
1000=1000
