document.write( "Question 1038480: Your grandmother needs your help. She has $50,000 to invest. Part of this money is to be invested in non-insured bonds paying 15% annual interest. The rest is to be invested in a government insured certificate of deposit paying 7% annual interest. She requires at least $6000 per year in extra income, but does not want to invest any more than necessary in the riskier 15% investment. How much of the $50,000 should be invested in the 15% investment so that the sum of the interest from the TWO investments will equal $6000? \n" ); document.write( "
