Atotal of 500 dollars was invested. part of it at 7 percent and the remainder at 8 percent. total yearly interest from both investments amounted to 38 dollars. how much was invested at the 8 percent rate?

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

in the given figure, two triangles are inscribed in a circle where ∠bae ≅ ∠dae which makes the side be and de equal so we can write it as:

3x - 24 = x + 10

solving this equation for x to get:

3x - x = 10 + 24

2x = 34

x = 34/2

x = 17

therefore, the value of x = 17.

they can both be solutions depends on the equation
