A$7.000principal is invested in two accounts , one earning 3% interest and another earning 7% interst. if the total interest for the year is $262 then how much is invested in each account?

Let the investment in first account be x and this account is earning 3% interest

So Interest on this account is 3% of x = 0.03x

So the investment in second account would be (7000-x) and this account is earning 7% interest

So the interest on this account is 7% of (7000-x) = 0.07*(7000-x)

Given that total interest for the year is $262

So we have

0.03x + 0.07(7000-x) = 262

0.03x - 0.07x + 0.07*7000 = 262

-0,04x + 490 = 262

-0.04x = 262-490

-0.04x = - 228

0.04x = 228x

x = 228/0.04

x = 5700

Therefore Investment in one account s 5700 and the investment in other account is 7000-5700 = 1300

"it's not the heat, it's the humidity".   that's a partly valid phrase you may have heard in the summer, but it's actually both.   the heat index, also known as the apparent temperature, is what the temperature feels like to the human body when relative humidity is combined with the air temperature.   this has important considerations for the human body's comfort.   when the body gets too hot, it begins to perspire or sweat to cool itself off.   if the perspiration is not able to evaporate, the body cannot regulate its temperature.   evaporation is a cooling process.   when perspiration is evaporated off the body, it effectively reduces the body's temperature.   when the atmospheric moisture content (i.e. relative humidity) is high, the rate of perspiration from the body decreases.   in other words, the human body feels warmer in humid conditions.   the opposite is true when the relative humidity decreases because the rate of perspiration increases.   the body actually feels cooler in arid conditions.   there is direct relationship between the air temperature and relative humidity and the heat index, meaning as the air temperature and relative humidity increase (decrease), the heat index increases (decreases).
