Answer:

X+Y \sim N(\mu_X +\mu_Y , \sqrt{\sigma^2_X +\sigma^2_Y})

The mean is given by:

\mu = 3.8+2.9= 6.7

And the standard deviation would be:

\sigma =\sqrt{1.2^2 + 1.7^2} = 2.08

And the distribution for X+Y would be:

X+Y \sim N(6.7 , 2.08)

And the best answer would be:

D.) Mean, 6.7; standard deviation, 2.08

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable who represent the AP Art History exam we know that the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(3.8, 1.2)

Let Y the random variable who represent the AP English exam we know that the distribution for X is given by:

X \sim N(2.9, 1.7)

We want to find the distribution for X+Y. Assuming independence between the two distributions we have:

X+Y \sim N(\mu_X +\mu_Y , \sqrt{\sigma^2_X +\sigma^2_Y})

The mean is given by:

\mu = 3.8+2.9= 6.7

And the standard deviation would be:

\sigma =\sqrt{1.2^2 + 1.7^2} = 2.08

And the distribution for X+Y would be:

X+Y \sim N(6.7 , 2.08)

And the best answer would be:

D.) Mean, 6.7; standard deviation, 2.08

Kasey asked 6 of her friends how many episodes of their favorite show they
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

6 friends

Mean - 10

Median - 9.5

Range - 14

3 friends watched 12, 13, and 18 movies.

Let's find the sum, this will help us find the total number of movies the other 3 friends watched.

12 + 13 + 18 = 43

The mean is all their movies added toether, divided by the number of friends.

m = number of movies the other friends watched.

(43 + m) / 6 = 10        Multiply each side by 6

43 + m = 10 * 6

43 + m = 60          Subtract 43 from each side

m = 60 - 43

m = 17

So we know the total movies the other friends watched is 3.

A. 4+6+7 = 17

B. 4+4+7 = 15

C. 5+8+9 = 22

D. 2+3+5 = 10

We know the answer is A.

We can check it by looking at the Median, the median is the middle number, if there are an even number of samples, you add the 2 middle numbers together and divide by 2.

4, 6, 7, 12, 13, 18

So 7+12 = 19

19/2 = 9.5

So we know for sure A is correct!
