Could Sally reduce her total risk even more by using assets M and N only, assets M and only, or assets N and O only? Use a 50/50 split between the asset pairs, and find the standard deviation of each asset pair. -X Data table a. What is the expected retum of Investing equally in all three assets M, N, and O?
