Answer:

C.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval concepts:

A confidence interval has two bounds, a lower bound and an upper bound.

A confidence interval is symmetric, which means that the point estimate used is the mid point between these two bounds, that is, the mean of the two bounds.

The margin of error is the difference between the two bounds, divided by 2.

In this question:

Lower bound: 70

Upper bounf: 110

Margin of error:

M = \frac{110 - 70}{2} = \frac{40}{2} = 20

Thus the correct answer is given by option C.

Read this E[2X^2 â€" Y].
djyliett [7]

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.

PLEASE HELP ME~! NEED THIS ASAP
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

since y and x vary directly the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of variation

to find k use any ordered pair from the list given

using x = 4 when y = - 2, then

k = \frac{y}{x} = \frac{-2}{4} = - 0.5 → B
