Question 994815
Let {{{ x }}} = amount taxed at 4%
{{{ 8200 - x }}} = amount taxed at 5%
--------------
{{{ 330 = .04x + .05*( 8200 - x ) }}}
{{{ 330 = .04x + 410 - .05x }}}
{{{ .01x = 410 - 330 }}}
{{{ .01x = 80 }}}
{{{ x = 8000 }}}
and
{{{ 8200 - x = 8200 - 8000 }}}
{{{ 8200 - x = 200 }}}
-------------------
$8,000 is taxed at 4%
$200 is taxed at 5%
-------------------
check:
{{{ 330 = .04x + .05*( 8200 - x ) }}}
{{{ 330 = .04*8000 + .05*( 8200 - 8000 ) }}}
{{{ 330 = 320 + .05*200 }}}
{{{ 330 = 320 + 10 }}}
{{{ 330 = 330 }}}
OK
