Let's say the amounts were "a" and "b", at 12% and 9% respectively

so... the total amount of those two, is $9500, since that was the total
amount invested, thus
a + b = 9500

now, 12% of a plus 9% of b, yielded $1032
12% of a is 12/100 * a or 0.12a
9% of b is 9/100 * b or 0.09b

thus

0.12a + 0.09b = 1032

\bf \begin{cases}
a+b=9500\to b=\boxed{9500-a}\\
0.12a + 0.09b = 1032\\
--------------\\
thus
\\\\
0.12a + 0.09(\boxed{9500-a}) = 1032
\end{cases}

solve for "a", to see how much was invested at 12%,

what about "b"? well, b = 9,500 - a

I don't know how to solve this and the answer isn't 4 or 0 so what is it?4=-4+a​
nevsk [136]
The answer is 8. This is because when you substitute 8 with “a” you then solve the problem to see if it is equal to the answer. -4+8=4... -4+4=0 so that is wrong and -4+O=-4 which is also incorrect.
