    amount invested at rate 3 % is $20000

    and amount invested at rate 2.75 % is $80000

    Explanation:

    given data

    interest = 3%

    four times = 2.75%

    total annual income from interest = $2800.

    solution

    we consider here part of money p1 = x

    rate r1 = 3%

    and

    4 time money p2 = 4x

    rate r2 = 2.75 %

    so we apply interest formula that is

    interest = Principal*Rate*Time

    2800 = { x * 0.03 * 1 } + { 4x * 0.0275 * 1 }

    solve it we get

    x = 20,000

    and

    and 4x will be = 4 * 20,000 = 80,000

    so here

    amount invested at rate 3 % is $20000

    and amount invested at rate 2.75 % is $80000
