A $500 investment and a $1,500 investment have a combined yearly return of 13 percent of the total of the two investments. If the $500 investment has a yearly return of 7 percent, what percent yearly return does the $1,500 investment have? Choose the correct option.
A) 9%
B) 15%
C) 105/8%
D) 11%
E) 12%
The equation we can form the question :   Return on Total Investment = Sum of individual Investments   (500+1500)(13)=(500âˆ—7)+(1500x), where x is the return on investment of 1500.   Solving the equation, we get x = 15% ( Option 15%)	ANSWER:15%
