Answer:

The correct answer is $16500 and $ 10000 each in two accounts.

Step-by-step explanation:

Samantha invests a total of $26,500 in two accounts.

Let Samantha invest $x in one account and $(26500 - x) in the other account.

The first account earned a rate of return of 14% (after a year).

Return earned = 14% of x

The second account suffered a 4% loss in the same time period.

Loss suffered = 4% of (26500 - x)

At the end of one year, the total amount of money gained was $1,910.00.

Therefore 14% of x - 4 % of (26500 - x) = 1910

⇒ 0.14x - 1060 + 0.04x = 1910

⇒ 0.18x = 2970

⇒ x = 16500

Therefore Samantha invested $16500 and $10000 each in two accounts.

<h3>Solution :</h3>

\sf \dfrac{6x+4}{3} = \dfrac{5x-5}{8}

By cross multiply, we get

\sf : \implies (6x+4) \times 8 = (5x-5) \times 3

\sf : \implies 48x+32 = 15x-15

\sf : \implies 48x+32 - 15x + 15= 0

\sf : \implies 33x + 47 = 0

\sf : \implies 33x = -47

\sf : \implies x = \dfrac{- 47}{33}

Therefore, answer is \sf x = \dfrac{- 47}{33}
