Answer:
Hi! I believe this is your answer:
$750
Step by step explanation:
interest + interest = total interest
0.08*x + 0.09*(9000-x) = 750 dollars
0.08x + 810 - 0.09x = 750
-0.01x = 750 - 810 = -60 ====> x = %28-60%29%2F%28-0.01%29 = 6000.
Final answer:
$6000 was invested at 8%. The rest 9000-6000 = 3000 dollars were invested at 9%.
Check. 0.08*6000 + 0.09*3000 = 480 + 270 = 750 dollars.
