Answer:

$16,000 in stocks

$8,000 in bonds

Step-by-step explanation:

He invests 2x in stocks and x in bonds.

The total investment is 2x + x = 3x.

The total investment is $24,000.

3x = 24,000

x = 8,000

Stocks: 2x = 2(8,000) = 16,000

Bonds: x = 8,000

Answer:

$16,000 in stocks

$8,000 in bonds
