Answer:

39 investors contributed $6,000, and 21 investors contributed $12,000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that x investors contributed $6,000, and y investors contributed $12,000.

x + y = 60

6,000x + 12,000y = 486,000

x + 2y = 81

x + y = 60

y = 21

x + 21 = 60

x = 39

So, 39 investors contributed $6,000, and 21 investors contributed $12,000.

Hope this helps!

A(x+1)(x-1)+b(x-2)(x+1)+(x+1)^2=9x-x-10 What is a+b?
igor_vitrenko [27]

a(x+1)(x-1)+b(x-2)(x+1)+(x+1)^2=9x^2-x-10

(x+1)(a(x-1)+b(x-2)+(x+1))=(x+1)(9x-10)

a(x-1)+b(x-2)+x+1=9x-10

Now this equation is much simpler!

(a+b)x-a-2b+x+1=9x-10

(a+b)x-a-2b=8x-11

(a+b-8)x-a-2b-11=0

a+b-8=(a+2b-11)/x

I can't solve it 3 variables and 1 equations means infinite answers so yea.
