3. [10 mark] Newton and Leibniz are co-founders of a tech startup that recently secured significant funding. They decide to invest their profits into two distinct portfolios, based on their risk appetite and investment strategies. Newton puts $100,000 into a high-growth tech fund, which has been growing at a rate of 12% per year, compounded continuously.
