Hey there,

3x^2 - 1 (x = 2)

Plug in 2 for x

3(2)^2 - 1

Do the exponent

3(4) -1

Multiply and the subtract

12 -1 = 11

The answer would be 11

Hope I helped :)

3x^2-1, x=2

3(2)^2-1

3(4)-1

12-1

11

When x=2, 3x^2-1=11.

X and y are normal random variables with e(x) = 2, v(x) = 5, e(y) = 6, v(y) = 8 and cov(x,y)=2. determine the following: e(3x 2y

andriy [413]

The result for the given normal random variables are as follows;

a. E(3X + 2Y) = 18

b. V(3X + 2Y) = 77

c. P(3X + 2Y < 18) = 0.5

d. P(3X + 2Y < 28) = 0.8729

<h3>What is normal random variables?</h3>

Any normally distributed random variable having mean = 0 and standard deviation = 1 is referred to as a standard normal random variable. The letter Z will always be used to represent it.

Now, according to the question;

The given normal random variables are;

E(X) = 2, V(X) = 5, E(Y) = 6, and V(Y) = 8.

Part a.

Consider E(3X + 2Y)

$\begin{aligned}E(3 X+2 Y) &=3 E(X)+2 E(Y) \\&=(3) (2)+(2)(6 )\\&=18\end{aligned}$
