    The amount of short term note is $100,000 and long term note is $80,000 respectively.

    Explanation:

    For computing the amount of each unit we have to assume the things which is shown below:

    Let us assume the short term note be X which equal to 10 %

    And, the long term note be $180,000 - X which is equal to 7%

    So, the equation would be

    0.10X + 0.07 ($180,000 - X) = $15,600

    0.10X + $12,600 - 0.07X = $15,600

    0.03X = $15,600 - $12,600

    0.03X = $3,000

    X = $3,000 : 0.03

    X = $100,000

    So, the short term note is $100,000

    And, the long term note is = $180,000 - $100,000 = $80,000

    Hence, the amount of short term note is $100,000 and long term note is $80,000 respectively.
