Answer: option A) 1/3
Justification:
1) The probability that a point chosen at random <span>in the regular hexagon lies in the shaded region is equal to:
area of the shaded region
---------------------------------------
area of the hexagon
2) The hexagon is formed by 6 equal triangles and the shaded area is formed by 2 of those triangles.
3) Therefor,naming x the area of one triangle, the the above fraction is equal to:
area of two triangles 2x
------------------------------- = -------- = 2/6 = 1/3
area of six triangles 6x
And that is the answer: 1/3

I did the math and I believe the answer is, the y-intercept is 12.3.
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:
$5.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the difference between the weeks as this will give you the difference hence the amount deposited each week
0->1
is 12.00->17.75
diffrence is $5.75
1->2
is 17.75->23.50
diffrence is $5.75
the amount saved each week is $5.75
