Answer:

From the given, we establish this relationship:

RS + ST = RT

RS = ST since S is the midpoint of RT

Thus, let's use RS = ST to find x,

By substituting the given expressions:

RS = ST

8x + 11 = 14x - 1

12 = 6x

x = 12/6

thus,

x = 2

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

x=amount invested at 7%

2x=amount invested at 8%

3x=amount invested at 9%

interest=principal*rate*time (time=1 year)

$150=0.07x+0.08*2x+0.09*3x

$150=0.07x+0.16x+0.27x

$150=0.50x

$1500=5x

x=$300 invested at 7%

2x=$600 invested at 8%

3x=$900 invested at 9%
