Chapter 3.4, Problem 59E

In Problems 53 − 63 ,

set up each system of equations and then solve it using inverse matrices.

59.

Investment A trust account manager has $ 1 , 000 , 000 to be invested in three different accounts. The accounts pay 6 % , 8 % , and 10%, and the goal is to earn $ 86 , 000 per year with the amount invested at 10 % equal to the sum of the other two investments. To accomplish this, assume that x dollars are invested at 8 % , y dollars at 10 % , and z dollars at 6 % . Find how much should be invested in each account to satisfy the conditions.
