vests $x in bond A and $y in bond B. Her total return on the investment is $340. The system of linear equations defining the situation iswhat . The amount Lisa invested at the rate of 10% is what , and the amount she invested at the rate of 6% is what
Lisa invests $4,000 in two types of bonds, bond A and bond
B. Bond A offers a 10% return, and bond B offers a 6% return. Lisa invested in
each bond in x and y amounts. To solve the problem using two equation: x +y
=4000
0.10x +
0.06y = 340
