Some in stocks at 12%: 0.12x
\n" ); document.write( "The rest in bonds at 4%: 0.04(14000-x) Note: Minus x, since x is invested at 12%
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Put it together:
\n" ); document.write( "0.12x+0.04(14000-x) = 1360
\n" ); document.write( "0.12x+560-0.04x = 1360
\n" ); document.write( "0.08x = 800
\n" ); document.write( "x = 10,000 this is the amount invested at 12%
\n" ); document.write( "14,000-10,000 = 4,000 is invested in bonds at 4%
\n" ); document.write( ">>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
\n" ); document.write( "Check:
\n" ); document.write( "10,000*0.12 = 1,200
\n" ); document.write( "4,000*0.04 . = 160
