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

Solving the equation lisa invested $2500 in 10% rate and $1500 in 6% rate.
