Answer:
2x+4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a is the average (arithmetic mean) of 4x and 7, b is the average of 5x and 6, and c is the average of 3x and 11
By definition of arithmetic mean,
we have
Let us calculate sum of a,b,c in terms of x
a+b+c =
Average = sum/3 =
Let the amount invested at 4% be = x
Let the amount invested at 3% be = y
Given is:
or
.... (1)
As, total income for the two investments is $194, so equation is:
....(2)
Putting value of x from (1) in (2)
And x=5200-y
Hence, money invested at 4% is $3800 and money invested at 3% is $1400
