Rosalinda invested some of her $15,000 in bonds that made a 6% profit and the rest in bonds that made a 10% profit. If the profit on the 10% bonds was $1,000 more than the profit on the 6% bonds, how much did Rosalinda invest in the 6% bonds?

\n" ); document.write( "Quantity:: s + t = 15000 dollars
\n" ); document.write( "Interest:: 10t = 100000 + 6s
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Modify for elimination:
