are constants.

By definition of covariance,


\mathrm{Cov}(X,Y)=\mathbb E[(X-\mathbb E[X])(Y-\mathbb E[Y])]


\mathrm{Cov}(X,Y)=\mathbb E[XY-\mathbb E[X]Y-X\mathbb E[Y]+\mathbb E[X]\mathbb E[Y]]=\mathbb E[XY]-\mathbb E[X]\mathbb E[Y]


We have


\mathbb E[(aX-b)(cY-d)]=\mathbb E[acXY-adX-bcY+bd]

=ac\mathbb E[XY]-ad\mathbb E[X]-bc\mathbb E[Y]+bd


\mathbb E[aX-b]=a\mathbb E[X]-b


\mathbb E[cY-d]=c\mathbb E[Y]-d


\mathbb E[aX-b]\mathbb E[cY-d]=ac\mathbb E[X]\mathbb E[Y]-ad\mathbb E[X]-bc\mathbb E[Y]+bd


Putting everything together, we find the covariance reduces to


\mathrm{Cov}(aX-b,cY-d)=ac(\mathbb E[XY]-\mathbb E[X]\mathbb E[Y])=ac\mathrm{Cov}(X,Y)


as desired.

Answer:

During a 336-mile trip the car consumes 9.6 gallons of gasoline.

During a m-mile trip the car consumes 24 gallons of gasoline.

When the number of miles increases, the number of gallons of gasoline also increases. The car consumes gasoline at the same rate, so the ratio of miles to gallons is constant. The proportion is:

336/9.6= m/24

Find the minimum or maximum value of the function g(x)=−3x2−6x+5
polet [3.4K]

Step-by-step explanation:

g(x) = ax²+bx+c

g(x)=−3x²−6x+5

a = -3, b= -6, c = 5

since a <0 , the function has only maximum value.

=> g'(x) = 0

-6x -6 = 0

-6x = 6

x = -1

the maximum value => g(-1) =

-3(-1)²-6(-1)+5 = -3+6+5 = 9

the domain : {x | x € Real numbers}

the range : {y| y ≤ 9, y € Real numbers}

the function is increasing for x < -1

the function is decreasing for x > -1

Rewrite the function y= x^2 + 14x + 4 in vertex form
Step2247 [10]
Vertex form is basically commplete the square
y=a(x-h)^2+k


y=x^2+14x+4
take 1/2 of 14 and square it, (7^2=49)
add that and its negative to right side
y=x^2+14x+49-49+4
factor perfect squaer
y=(x+7)^2-49+4
y=(x+7)^2-45

answer is A
