Assuming simple interest (i.e. no compounding within first year), then
At 6%, interest = 10000*0.06=$600
At 9% interest = 10000*0.09 = $900

Two ways to find the ratio
method A. let x=proportion at 6%
then
600x+900(1-x)=684
Expand and solve
300x=900-684=216
x=216/300=0.72 or 72%
So 10000*0.72=7200 were invested at 6%
10000-7200=2800 were invested at 9%

method B: by proportions
Ratio of investments at 6% and 9%
= 900-684 : 684-600
=216 : 84
= 18 : 7
Amount invested at 6% = 18/(18+7) * 10000 = 0.72*10000 = 7200
Amount invested at 8% = 7/(18+7)*10000=0.28*10000=2800

assume that the number of production defects is 28 and that 14 of these are classified as major defects, 8 are classified as des
Arlecino [84]

Answer:  5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A denotes the number of major defects and B denotes the number of design defect.

By considering the given information, we have

U=28\ ;\ n(A)=14\ ;\ n(B)=8\ \ ;\ n(A^c\cap B^c)=1

Now, the number of major defects or design defects:

n(A\cup B)=U-n(A^c\cap B^c)=28-11=17

Also,

n(A\cap B)=n(A)+n(B)-n(A\cup B)\\\\\Rightarrow\ n(A\cap B)=14+8-17=5

Hence, the number of  design defects were major=5
