Let us assume $x is deposit at 2.5% interest.

At the rate 4.5% deposited amount is twice of the amount deposited at 2.5%.

Therefore, at the rate 4.5% deposited amount = $2x.

Total interest earned by both different deposited amount at the rate 2.5% and at the rate 4.5% = $1150.

We can setup an eqation now,

Interest earned on $x at 2.5% + interest earned on $2 at 4.5% = $1150.

2.5% of x + 4.5% of 2x = 1150

Percentage could be written in decimals by dividing by 100.

Therefore, 2.5% = 2.5 /100= 0.025 and 4.5% = 4.5/100 = 0.045.

We could rewrite above equation as,

0.025*x + 0.045 * 2x = 1150

0.025x + 0.09x =1150

Adding 0.025x + 0.09x, we get 0.115x.

So, 0.115x=1150.

Dividing both sides by 0.115.

0.115x/0.115=1150/0.115.

x= $1000.

2x= 2* 1000= $2000

Therefore,

$1000 deposited at 2.5% and $2000 deposited at 4.5%.

5x + 7y = 17<br> x + 4y = 19
REY [17]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

5x + 7y = 17 ....(1)

x + 4y = 19 .....(2)

<u>From equation 2</u>

x + 4y = 19

x = 19 - 4y

<u>Putting the value of x in Equation (1)</u>

5(19 - 4y) + 7y = 17

95 - 20y + 7y = 17

- 20y + 7y = 17 - 95

-13y = -78

y = \frac{78}{13}

y = 6

<u>Now, putting the value of y in equation </u><u>(</u><u>2</u><u>)</u>

x + 4y = 19

x + 4(6) = 19

x + 24 = 19

x = 19 - 24

x = -5

<u>Therefore, the value of y is 6 and value of x is -5</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

cross multiply to get 40x+20=48

subtract 20 from both sides to get 40x=28
