Answer by mananth(16946)   (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! let amount invested in certificates be $x
the amount invested in bonds will be (20,000-x)
..
(20,000-x)= x+2000
20,000-x= x +2000
2x= 18,000
x = 9000 amount invested in certificates
$ 11,000 will be invested in bonds
