JESSI bought two plots of land for a total of 120000 on the first plot she made a profit of 15%. on the second plot she lost 10% .her total profit was 5500, how much did she pay for each piece of land? ( please show the whole procedure of this math even the rough works) Thank you so much!!!

Answer 1

If the 15% plot cost x, then the rest was invested at 10%

.15x - .10(120000-x) = 5500
x = 70,000
