Jorge purchased municipal bonds which yield 6% annually and certificates of deposit which yield 8% annually. If Jorge’s initial investments amount to $11,000 and the annual income is $720, how much money is invested in bonds?
\n" ); document.write( "-----------
\n" ); document.write( "Using one variable:
\n" ); document.write( "Equation:
\n" ); document.write( "int + int = int
\n" ); document.write( "0.06x + 0.08(11,000-x) = 720
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "6x + 88000 - 8x = 72000
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "-2x = -16000
\n" ); document.write( "x = $8000 (amt. invested at 6%)
\n" ); document.write( "11000 -x = $3000 (amt invested at 8%)
