Question 385957
Walt has three investments totaling $110,000. These investments earn interest at 8%, 10% and 12% respectively. Walt's total income from these investments is $11,600. The income from the 12% investment exceeds the total income from the other two investments by $400. Find how much Walt has invested at 8%. 
---------------
Equations:
x + y + z = 110,000
8x+10y+12z= 1160000
z = (x+y)+400
---------------------------
Rearrange:
x + y + z = 110,000
8x+10y+12z= 1160000
x + y - z = -400
--------------------------
Use any method you know to get:
x = 25200
y = 29600
z = 55200
