You invested money in two funds. last year, the first fund paid a dividend of 8% and the second a dividend of 5%, and you received a total of $1330. this year, the first fund paid a 12% dividend and the second only 2%, and you received a total of $1500. how much money did you invest in each fund?

You invested 11000 in in 2st fund and 9000 in 2nd fund

Given that, You invested money in two funds.  

Last year, the first fund paid a dividend of 8% and the second a dividend of 5%, and you received a total of $1330.  

This year, the first fund paid a 12% dividend and the second only 2%, and you received a total of $1500.

Let the amount in Fund I be $x and amount in Fund II be $ y

Then, for last year ⇒ 0.08x+0.05y=1330 eqn (1)  

And for this year ⇒ 0.12x+0.02y=1500 eqn (2)  

Multiply (1) by 2 ⇒ 0.16 x + 0.1 y = 2660  

Multiply (2) by 5 ⇒ 0.6 x + 0.1 y = 7500

Subtract the two equations  

(2) ⇒ 0.6x + 0.1y = 7500

(1) ⇒ 0.16x + 0.1y = 2660

(-)

0.44x + 0 = 4840

x = 11000

Now, from eqn (2)  

0.12(11000) + 0.02y = 1500  

0.02y = 1500 – 1320  

0.02y = 180  

y = 9000

Hence, he invested 11000 in in 2st fund and 9000 in 2nd fund
