Let's say the quantities are "a" and "b"
so... whatever "a" and "b" are, they add up to 9,500, thus

a + b = 9,500

now, "a" was invested at 12%, or 12/100
it yielded some amount, actually 12% of a, or 12/100 * a or 0.12a

the "b" amount was invested at 9%, or 9/100
it yielded 9% of b, or 9/100 * b or 0.09b

whatever 0.12a is, and 0.09b is, their sum or total yield was 1032
thus
0.12a + 0.09b = 1032

thus     \bf \begin{cases}
a+b=9,500\implies \boxed{b}=9,500-a\\\\
0.12a+0.09b=1032\\
--------------\\
0.12a+0.09(\boxed{9,500-a})=1032
\end{cases}

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

what about "b"? well, b = 9500 - a

Please help?? its unit rate so plz help tell me how to do it
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

1.2 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to divide the dollar count by the pound count.

So basically:

6/5

This gives you 1.2 dollars.

When you do unit rate, you just have to divide one value by the other value.

The value you divide by, and the value you divde, vary depending on what the question asks.

For instance, if this question asked what the pound count for 1 dollar would be, you would end up divide the 5 pounds by 6 dollars(5/6) instead of divideing the 6  dollars by 5 pounds like we did above(6/5).

Hope this helps!
