Question 557477
If x = the smaller amount deposited and 2x = the larger amount, you can express the earnings on these two amounts, after converting the percentages to their decimal equivalents, as follows:
0.04x+0.045(2x) = 2340 Simplify and solve for x.
0.04x+0.09x = 2340
0.13x = 2340
x = 18000 and...
2x = 36000
So Lliza(?) deposited 18,000 (dollars or pounds or...?) at 4% interest and 36,000 at 4.5% interest.
