Answer:

  • 5000 shares of stock fund
  • 6000 shares of bond fund

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b represent the number of shares of the bond fund owned. Then the value of the pension fund is ...

  15b +12(11000-b) = 150000

  3b = 18000 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 130,000

  b = 6000 . . . . . . . . . shares of bond fund

  11000 -b = 5000 . . . shares of stock fund
