Question 1119598
<font face="Times New Roman" size="+2">


Let *[tex \Large x] represent the amount invested at 6% and then *[tex \Large 50,000\ -\ x] must be the amount invested at 5%.


The amount of interest earned on the 6% investment is then *[tex \Large 0.06x] and the amount earned on the 5% investment is *[tex \Large 0.05(50000\ -\ x)], so:


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 0.06x\ +\ 0.05(50000\ -\ x)\ =\ 2730]


Solve for *[tex \Large x] and then calculate *[tex \Large 50,000\ -\ x]

*[tex \LARGE e^{i\pi}\ +\ 1\ =\ 0]
My calculator said it, I believe it, that settles it
