3x -1 = 11
3x = 11 + 1
3x = 12
x = 4
I take it by, x2 + x, you mean 2x + x, since x = 4, then
2x + x = 2(4) + (4) = 8 + 4 =12

Answer:
- $8000 at 1%
- $2000 at 10%
Step-by-step explanation:
It often works well to let a variable represent the amount invested at the higher rate. Then an equation can be written relating amounts invested to the total interest earned.
__
<h3>setup</h3>
Let x represent the amount invested at 10%. Then 10000-x is the amount invested at 1%. The total interest earned is ...
0.10x +0.01(10000 -x) = 280
<h3>solution</h3>
Simplifying gives ...
0.09x +100 = 280
0.09x = 180 . . . . . . . subtract 100
x = 2000 . . . . . . divide by 0.09
10000 -x = 8000 . . . . amount invested at 1%
<h3>1.</h3>
$8000 should be invested in the 1% account
<h3>2.</h3>
$2000 should be invested in the 10% account
