1(i) Funds transferred into Account A: 0.05 y  0.1z
Funds transferred from Account A: 0.375x  0.125x  0.5x

So we have 0.5x   0.05 y  0.1z   16

i.e. 0.5x  0.05 y  0.1z  16 ----(1)
(ii) Similarly, for Account B, we have
0.375x  0.1y  0.2 z  19 ----(2)
We also know x  y  z  90 ----(3)
Solving (1), (2), (3) using GC, we have
x  40, y  20, z  30

Therefore, the tangent is a vertical line.
Thus, the tangent is x  2 .
