You are considering investing $1,000 in a T-bill that pays a rate of return of 0.05 and a risky portfolio, P, constructed with 2 risky securities, X and Y. The weights of X and Y in P are 0.60 and 0.40, respectively. X has an expected rate of return of 0.17 and a variance of 0.01, and Y has an expected rate of return of 0.10 and a variance of 0.0081. If you want to form a portfolio with an expected rate of return of 0.10, what percentages of your money must you invest in the T-bill, X, and Y, respectively if you keep X and Y in the same proportions to each other as in portfolio P?
