	1700					
Interest-----	60					
						
Account I	6.00%		per annum	---x		
Account II	3.00%		per annum	---y		
					
x	+	1	y=	1700	-------------1	
						
6.00%	x	+	3.00%	y=	60

6	x	+	3	y=	6000.00	--------2
Multiply (1) by			-6			
we get						
-6	x	-6	y=	-10200.00		
Add this to (2)						
0	x	-3	y=	-4200		
divide by		-3				
			y	=	1400	
Account I	6.00%	$	300			
Account II	3.00%	$	1400			
						
CHECK
