    let x = amount invested at 3%

    so, (2600 - x) is invested at 7%

    .07 * (2600 - x) +.03 * (x) = 138

    182 -.07x +.03x = 138

    -.07x +.03x = 138 - 182

    -.04x = - 44

    -.04x / -.04 = - 44 / -.04

    x = 1,100

    so amount invested at 7% is (2600 - 1100) or 1500

    consequently amount invested at 3% is 1100

    $1,100 invested at 3%

    $1,500 invested at 7%
