The money can be placed in Treasury notes (with a return of 8% and a risk score of 2) or in municipal bonds (with a return of 9% and a risk score of 3).

Also, because of fear of default, the client requests that the average risk score of the total investment should be no more than 2.42. How much should the broker invest in each security so as to maximize return on investment?
