Answer:
The amount invested in the mutual fund that earned 5% was $1,000
The amount invested in the mutual fund that earned 3% was $1,800
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the amount invested in the mutual fund that earned 5%
y ----> the amount invested in the mutual fund that earned 3%
we know that
---->
----> equation A
----> equation B
Solve the system by substitution
substitute equation A in equation B
Solve for x
<em>Find the value of y</em>
therefore
The amount invested in the mutual fund that earned 5% was $1,000 and the amount invested in the mutual fund that earned 3% was $1,800
Answer:
50 grams
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount of cheese required by the recipe be "x"
Ann increased 60% from original amount and then used up 80 grams. Thus:
<em>Original, increased by 60%, became 80</em>
<em />
This translated to algebraic equation would be:
x + 0.6x = 80
<u>Note:</u> 60% = 60/100 = 0.6
So we can solve the above equation for "x" and get our answer. Shown below:
Hence,
the recipe required 50 grams of cheese
