We can rewrite the asked question like this:
wherein X_1 and X_2 are random variable with the same given normal distribution. Then mean of
is zero and the variance
can be computed like this:
So, the random variable
follows a normal distribution
with means 0 and standard deviation 9.6.
The median of the law N(0,9.6) is 0.
So the expected difference of the score is 0.
Given that S<span>am's distribution of meal costs has a mean of $9 and a standard deviation of $3, this means that the range of Sam's meal cost that are within one standard deviation is given by ($9 - 3, $9 + 3) = ($6, $12).
Given that Sam </span><span>always tips the server $2 plus 10% of the cost of the meal, this means that when the cost of the meal is $9, Sam tips $2 + (0.1 x 9) = $2 + $0.9 = $2.90
Therefore, the mean of the distribution of Sam's tips is $2.90
Similarly, the </span><span>range of Sam's tips that are within one standard deviation is given by ($2 + 0.1(6), $2 + 0.1(12)) = ($2 + 0.6, $2 + 1.2) = ($2.6, 3.2) = ($2.9 - $0.3, $2.9 + $0.3)
Therefore, </span><span>the standard deviation of the distribution of Sam's tips is $0.3</span>

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that the quadratic formula has that "plus or minus" due to our taking the square root of some quantity. No square root is involved in the two formulas you've posed.
I have two suggestions here:
1) Write " (x plus or minus y)^2 = x^ plus or minus 2 times xy + y^2 " Note that a + on the left side corresponds to a + on the right side, and same with - .
2) Memorize these two formulas, which in most algebra textbooks you'll find in the section "special products and factoring."
