Textbook Question
Chapter 13.1, Problem 4E
The t-table has entries for areas of 0.10, 0.05, 0.025, 0.01, and 0.005. In contrast, the χ2 -table has entries for those areas and for 0.995, 0.99, 0.975, 0.95, and 0.90. Explain why the t-values corresponding to these additional areas can be obtained from the existing t-table but must be provided explicitly in the χ2-table.

8 (Correlation and Diversification)
Assume we have two stocks, A and B, show that a particular combination
of the two stocks produce a risk-free portfolio when the correlation between
the return of A and B is -1.
9 (Portfolio allocation)
Suppose R₁ and R2 are returns of 2 assets and with expected return and
variance respectively r₁ and 72 and variance-covariance σ2, 0%½ and σ12. Find
−∞ ≤ w ≤ ∞ such that the portfolio wR₁ + (1 - w) R₂ has the smallest
risk.
