.08x+.07(45,000-x)=3,450
\n" ); document.write( ".08x+3,150-.07x=3,450
\n" ); document.write( ".01x=3,450-3,150
\n" ); document.write( ".01x=300
\n" ); document.write( "x=300/.01
\n" ); document.write( "x=30,000 invested @ 8% insurance policy.
\n" ); document.write( "45,000-30,000=15,000 invested @ 7% bonds.
