You are planning to take to a trip to Montreal, Canada during the month of April and you want to bring clothing that is appropri

ate for the weather. The daily high temperature X in degrees Celsius in Montreal during April has expected value E(X) = 10.3oC with a standard deviation SD(X) = 3.5oC. You want to convert these Celsius temperatures to oF (degrees Fahrenheit). The conversion of X into degrees Fahrenheit Y is Y = (9/5)X + 32.
1. What is E(Y), the expected daily high in Montreal during April in degrees Fahrenheit?
2. What is SD(Y), the standard deviation of the daily high temperature in Montreal during April in degrees Fahrenheit?

Answer:

1. E(Y) = 50.54°F

2. SD(Y) = 11.34°F

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that The daily high temperature X in degrees Celsius in Montreal during April has expected value E(X) = 10.3°C with a standard deviation SD(X) = 3.5°C.

The conversion of X into degrees Fahrenheit Y is Y = (9/5)X + 32.

(1) Y = (9/5)X + 32

   E(Y) = E((9/5)X + 32) = E((9/5)X) + E(32)

           = (9/5) * E(X) + 32   {\because expectation of constant is constant}

           = (9/5) * 10.3 + 32 = 50.54

Therefore, E(Y), the expected daily high in Montreal during April in degrees Fahrenheit is 50.54°F .

(2) Y = (9/5)X + 32

    SD(Y) = SD((9/5)X + 32) = SD((9/5)X) + SD(32)

              = (9/5)^{2} * SD(X) + 0  {\because standard deviation of constant is zero}

              = \beacuse (9/5)^{2} * 3.5 = 11.34°F

Therefore, SD(Y), the standard deviation of the daily high temperature in Montreal during April in degrees Fahrenheit is 11.34°F .

Step-by-step explanation:

first you make the demoninators the same so 3*4=12

and if you *3 you do it to the numerator

so its 9/12-5/12

the unsimplified fraction is 4/12

if wanted simplified version its 1/3
