Certificates 6.00% per annum ---x
\n" ); document.write( "AA bond 11.00% per annum ---y
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "x + 1 y= 160000 ------------------------1
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "6.00% x + 11.00% y= 15600
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply by 100
\n" ); document.write( "6 x + 11 y= 1560000.00 --------2
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply (1) by -6
\n" ); document.write( "we get
\n" ); document.write( "-6 x -6 y= -960000.00
\n" ); document.write( "Add this to (2)
\n" ); document.write( "0 x 5 y= 600000
\n" ); document.write( "divide by 5
\n" ); document.write( " y = 120000
\n" ); document.write( "Certificates 11.00% $ 120000
\n" ); document.write( "AA bond 6.00% $ 40000
