amount invested in stocks ---- s
amount invested in bonds ---- b
amount invested in money market = .2s + .1b
s + b + .2s + .1b = 100,000
12s + 11b = 1,000,000 **
.12s + .08b + .04(.2s+.1b) = 10,000
.128s + .084b = 10,000
128s + 84b = 10,000,000
32s + 21b = 2,500,000 ***
solve ** and *** using your favourite method, it comes out nicely
