<h3>Answer:</h3>

$3700

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Let x represent the amount invested at 9%. Then 5100-x is the amount invested at 8%. The total interest earned is ...

... 0.08(5100-x) +0.09x = 445

... 0.01x = 445 -0.08·5100 . . . . . collect terms, subtract .08·5100

... x = (445 -408)/0.01 = 3700 . . . divide by the coefficient of x.

The student invested $3700 at 9%.
