inheritance is 15000.


this is composed of mutual funds and bonds.


he invests twiceas muich mony in mutual funds as bonds.


let x = amount n bonds.


2x = amount in mutual funds.


2x + x = 15000


combine like terms to get:


3x = 15000


solve for x to get x = 15000 / 3 = 5000


2x = 10000.


2x in mutual funds and x in bonds means 10,000 in mutual funds and 5,000 in bonds.


solution is 10,000 is to be invested in mutual funds.
