two investments totaling $19,500 produce an annual income of $1085. one investment yields 8% a year, while the other yields 3% per year. how much is invested at each rate?
***
let x=amt invested at 8%
19500-x=amt invested at 3%
.08x+.03(19500-x)=1085
.08x+585-.03x=1085
.05x=500
x=10000
19500-x=9500
amtinvested at 8%=$10000
amt invested at 3%=$9500  </PRE>
