I believe that the answer would be B) y = x + 19
D because a rational number can be converted into a fraction and the square root of 5 cannot be covert into a fraction because it equals 2.2
Mean:
E[Y] = E[3X₁ + X₂]
E[Y] = 3 E[X₁] + E[X₂]
E[Y] = 3µ + µ
E[Y] = 4µ
Variance:
Var[Y] = Var[3X₁ + X₂]
Var[Y] = 3² Var[X₁] + 2 Covar[X₁, X₂] + 1² Var[X₂]
(the covariance is 0 since X₁ and X₂ are independent)
Var[Y] = 9 Var[X₁] + Var[X₂]
Var[Y] = 9σ² + σ²
Var[Y] = 10σ²
Answer:
c = 15 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
9^2 + 12^2 = c^2
c^2 = 225
c = √225
<u>c = 15 ft</u>
Answer:Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given the sequence -4,-6,-8..., in order to get sigma notation to represent the sum of the first seven terms of the sequence, we need to first calculate the sum of the first seven terms of the sequence as shown;
The sum of an arithmetic series is expressed as ![S_n = \frac{n}{2}[2a+(n-1)d]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S_n%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7Bn%7D%7B2%7D%5B2a%2B%28n-1%29d%5D)
n is the number of terms
a is the first term of the sequence
d is the common difference
Given parameters
n = 7, a = -4 and d = -6-(-4) = -8-(-6) = -2
Required
Sum of the first seven terms of the sequence
![S_7 = \frac{7}{2}[2(-4)+(7-1)(-2)]\\\\S_7 = \frac{7}{2}[-8+(6)(-2)]\\\\S_7 = \frac{7}{2}[-8-12]\\\\\\S_7 = \frac{7}{2} * -20\\\\S_7 = -70](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S_7%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B2%7D%5B2%28-4%29%2B%287-1%29%28-2%29%5D%5C%5C%5C%5CS_7%20%3D%20%20%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B2%7D%5B-8%2B%286%29%28-2%29%5D%5C%5C%5C%5CS_7%20%3D%20%20%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B2%7D%5B-8-12%5D%5C%5C%5C%5C%5C%5CS_7%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B2%7D%20%2A%20-20%5C%5C%5C%5CS_7%20%3D%20-70)
The sum of the nth term of the sequence will be;
![S_n = \frac{n}{2}[2(-4)+(n-1)(-2)]\\\\S_n = \frac{n}{2}[-8+(-2n+2)]\\\\S_n = \frac{n}{2}[-6-2n]\\\\S_n = \frac{-6n}{2} - \frac{2n^2}{2}\\S_n = -3n-n^2\\\\S_n = -n(3+n)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S_n%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7Bn%7D%7B2%7D%5B2%28-4%29%2B%28n-1%29%28-2%29%5D%5C%5C%5C%5CS_n%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7Bn%7D%7B2%7D%5B-8%2B%28-2n%2B2%29%5D%5C%5C%5C%5CS_n%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7Bn%7D%7B2%7D%5B-6-2n%5D%5C%5C%5C%5CS_n%20%3D%20%20%5Cfrac%7B-6n%7D%7B2%7D%20-%20%20%5Cfrac%7B2n%5E2%7D%7B2%7D%5C%5CS_n%20%3D%20-3n-n%5E2%5C%5C%5C%5CS_n%20%3D%20-n%283%2Bn%29)
The sigma notation will be expressed as
. <em>The limit ranges from 1 to 7 since we are to find the sum of the first seven terms of the series.</em>
