Question 1177198
.
<pre>

The total interest equation is


    0.05x + 0.05*(x+100000) = 35000


From the equation,


    x = {{{(35000-0.05*100000)/(0.05+0.05)}}} = 300,000   invested by the husband.


Hence,  the amount invested  by Tina was 300,000 + 100,000 = 400,000.


<U>CHECK</U>.  0.05*300000 + 0.05*400000 = 35,000, the total interest.    ! Correct !

Solved.
