A bank loaned out $17,500, part of it at the rate of 10% annual interest, and the rest at 14% annual interest. The total interest earned for both loans was $2,170.00. How much was loaned at each rate?$ ______was loaned at 10% and $______ was loaned at 14%.

Answer: $7 000 was loaned at 10 % and $10 500 was loaned at 14 % Step-by-step explanation:                  Let x = amount loaned at 10 % Then 17 500 - x = amount loaned at 14 %                 0.10x = interest on 10 % loan 0.14(17 500 - x) = interest on 14 % loan           2170.00 = total interest [tex]\begin{array}{rcl}0.10x + 0.14(17 500 - x) & = & 2170.00\\0.10x + 2450 - 0.14x & = & 2170.00\\2450 - 0.04x & = & 2170.00\\-0.04x & = & -280\\\\x & = & \dfrac{-280}{-0.04}\\\\x & = & \mathbf{7000}\\\\\end{array}[/tex]$7000 was loaned at 10 % and $10 500 was loaned at 14 % Check: \[tex]\begin{array}{rcl}0.10\times 7000 + 0.14(17 500 - 7000) & = & 2170\\700 + 0.14(10 500) & = & 2170\\700 + 1470 & = & 2170\\2170 & = & 2170\\\end{array}[/tex]OK.
