Question 561171
Susan invested part of her 1800 savings at 9% annum and the remainder at 6% per annum. In one year, the 9% investement earned 102 more than the ^% investement. How much did she invest at each rate?
---------------------
Equation:
0.09x - 0.06(1800-x) = 102
----
Multiply thru by 100 to get:
9x - 6*1800 + 6x = 10200
--------
14x = 21000
x = $1500 (amt invested at 9%
1800-x = $300 (amt invested at 6%)
