a total of $ 20,000 was invested in two certificates of deposit at simple annual interest rates of 6 percent and 12 percent , respectively . if the total interest on the two certificates was $ 1,440 at the end of one year , what fractional part of the $ 20.000 was invested at the higher rate ?
"x * 6 / 100 * 1 + ( 20000 - x ) * 12 / 100 * 1 = 1440 6 x - 12 x = 144000 - 240000 = > - 6 x = - 96000 = > x = 16000 so 4000 / 20000 = 1 / 5 answer - c"
