x in CDs
x+15000 in bonds That total is 2x+15000
the rest is on stocks which must be 125000-(2x+15000) or 110000-2x
the income from interest is 0.0525x+(.046)(x+15000)+.096(110000-2x) and that equals $8445
0.0525x+0.046x+690+10560-0.192x=8445
-0.0935x=-2805
x=$30000 in CDs and pays $1575.
x+15000=$45000 in bonds and pays $2070
stocks are 125000-30000-45000=$50000 and pays $4800
