Two random variables x and y are independent if the value of x does not affect the value of y. If the variables are not​ indepen

dent, they are dependent. A new random variable can be formed by finding the sum or difference of random variables. If a random variable x has mean μx and a random variable y has mean μy then the means of the sum and difference of the variables are given by the following equations. μx+y=μx+μy μx−y=μx−μy The distribution of a​ test's scores for​ college-bound male seniors has a mean of 1528 and a standard deviation of 319. The distribution of a​ test's scores for​ college-bound female seniors has a mean of 1498 and a standard deviation of 304. One male and one female are randomly selected. Assume their scores are independent.What is the average sum of their scores? What is the average difference of their scores?

Answer: \mu_{x+y} = 3026

              \mu_{x-y}= 30

Step-by-step explanation: Average sum of the female and male's test score is the sum of expected value of each gender:

\mu_{x+y}=\mu_{x}+\mu_{y}

Assuming x represents the random male selected and y represents the random female selected:

\mu_{x+y}=1528+1498

\mu_{x+y}= 3026

The average sum of their scores is 3026.

Average difference is the difference between the expected value (mean) of each gender:

\mu_{x-y}=\mu_{x}-\mu_{y}

\mu_{x-y}= 1528 - 1498

\mu_{x-y}= 30

The average difference of their scores is 30.

Jill is standing at the base of her apartment building. She measures the angle of elevation to the top of a nearby tower to be 4
Helga [31]

Answer:

1) From the measure of 40°, you can write:

tan(40°) = 100/x, where x is the base from the building to the tower

⇒x=100/tan(40°) = 119,18 m

2) From the measure of 30°, you can write

tan(30°) = y / 119,18, where y is the height from the roof of Jill's building to the top of the tower.

Then, y = tan(30°) * 119,18 = 68,81 m

3) The height of Jill's building is 100 - 68,81 = 31,19 m

masha68 [24]

Answer:

(x + 2)² + (y + 9)² = 49

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation:

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

(x - -2)² + (y - -9)² = 7²

(x + 2)² + (y + 9)² = 49
