    he invested $10,000 at 7% and $12,000 at 6%

    Step-by-step explanation:

    There are 2 equations that appear from this problem X+Y=22,000 and 0.07x + 0.06y = 1420 Lets start by simplifying X+Y=22000

    Y = 22000 - x

    now plug this into the Y value for the other equation

    0.07x + 0.06 (22000-x) = 1420

    0.07x + 1320 - 0.06x = 1420

    0.01x = 100

    X = 10000

    now plug 10000 into x for the simplified equation

    Y = 22000 - 10000

    Y = 12000
