Answer:
Amount invested at 8 % rate = x = $ 15000
Amount invested at 9 % rate = 34000 - x = 34000 - 15000 = $ 19000
Step-by-step explanation:
Total Amount = $ 34000
Let amount invested at 8 % rate = x
Amount invested at 9 % rate = $ 34000 - x
Total interest = $ 2910

291000 = 8 x + 306000 - 9 x
x = 306000 - 291000
x = 15000
So amount invested at 8 % rate = x = $ 15000
Amount invested at 9 % rate = 34000 - x = 34000 - 15000 = $ 19000
0.24 is an even number....so 2 will be a factor
2x = 0.24
x = 0.24 / 2
x = 0.12
so 2 factors would be 2 and 0.12.....because 2 * 0.12 = 0.24
