Question 110586
{{{.08x = (2/3)* .072(24000 - x)}}}
{{{.24x = .144(24000 - x)}}}
{{{.24x = 3456 - .144x}}}
{{{.384x = 3456}}}
{{{x = 9000}}}
{{{24000 - x }}}
{{{24000 - 9000 = 15000}}}
$9,000 is invested @8% and $15,000 @ 7.2%
check
{{{.08x = (2/3)* .072(24000 - x)}}}
{{{.08*9000 = (2/3).072*15000}}}
{{{720 = (2/3)*1080}}}
{{{2160 = 2160}}}
OK
