Answer:

0.03A + 0.03B = 800

A + B = 20000

Explanation:

Let one part A of the total money invested with 3% interest = $A

Therefore, other part B of the money invested with 5% interest = $B

Interest = Principal amount × Rate of interest × Duration of investment

If the duration is 1 year,

Interest = Principal amount × Rate of interest

Return on part A = A × 0.03

Return on part B = B × 0.05

Total return = $800

So the equations will be,

0.03A + 0.03B = 800 -------(1)

Since, total money invested = $20000

Equation will be,

A + B = 20000 -------(2)
