Chapter 7.1, Problem 31E
Investment A man has $400,000 invested in three rental properties. One property earns 7.5% per year on the investment, the second earns 8%, and the third earns 9%. The total annual earnings from the three properties is $33,700, and the amount invested at 9% equals the sum of the first two investments. Let x equal the investment at 7.5%, y equal the investment at 8%, and z represent the investment at 9%.
- a. Write an equation that represents the sum of the three investments.
- b. Write an equation that states that the sum of the returns from all three investments is $33,700.
- c. Write an equation that states that the amount invested at 9% equals the sum of the other two investments.
- d. Solve the system of equations to find how much is invested in each property.
