Looks like a badly encoded/decoded symbol. It's supposed to be a minus sign, so you're asked to find the expectation of 2<em>X </em>² - <em>Y</em>.
If you don't know how <em>X</em> or <em>Y</em> are distributed, but you know E[<em>X</em> ²] and E[<em>Y</em>], then it's as simple as distributing the expectation over the sum:
E[2<em>X </em>² - <em>Y</em>] = 2 E[<em>X </em>²] - E[<em>Y</em>]
Or, if you're given the expectation and variance of <em>X</em>, you have
Var[<em>X</em>] = E[<em>X</em> ²] - E[<em>X</em>]²
→ E[2<em>X </em>² - <em>Y</em>] = 2 (Var[<em>X</em>] + E[<em>X</em>]²) - E[<em>Y</em>]
Otherwise, you may be given the density function, or joint density, in which case you can determine the expectations by computing an integral or sum.
Answer:
using Pythagoras rule, 16^2 -7^2 =a^2
so 256-49 = 297.
√207 =14.38 to the nearest tenth of an inch is 14inch.which is your answer
8:1 because it's just and 8 to a 1
Well, the answer would be square root of 3 over 2 because of the unit circle. So, the answer choice should be which ever one involved square root 3 over 2
Considering the volume of the rectangular prism, it is found that it's height is of 4.5 ft.
<h3>What is the volume of a rectangular prism?</h3>
The volume of a rectangular prism of length l, width w and height h is given by:

In this problem, the measures given are as follows:
l = 13 ft, w = 16 ft, V = 936 ft³.
Hence, the height, in ft, is found as follows:
