Suppose that X1 and X2 are independent random variables each with a mean μ and a variance σ^2. Compute the mean and variance of

Y = 3X1 + X2.

Mean:

E[Y] = E[3X₁ + X₂]

E[Y] = 3 E[X₁] + E[X₂]

E[Y] = 3µ + µ

E[Y] = 4µ

Variance:

Var[Y] = Var[3X₁ + X₂]

Var[Y] = 3² Var[X₁] + 2 Covar[X₁, X₂] + 1² Var[X₂]

(the covariance is 0 since X₁ and X₂ are independent)

Var[Y] = 9 Var[X₁] + Var[X₂]

Var[Y] = 9σ² + σ²

Var[Y] = 10σ²

What is the answer for |x|-7=8 <br> A) x=1<br> B) x= 15<br> C)x= -1 or 1<br> D) x= -15 or 15
borishaifa [10]
The answer is D. "x=-15 or 15."

You can solve this by adding seven on both sides.
|x|-7=8
   +7 +7
------------
|x|=15

Therefore, x is either equal to 15 or -15.

A tile factory earns money by a flat fee for delivery and sales price per tile sold. For one customer the tile factory shipped 1
algol13

10,000 tiles  * 0.25 = 2500

 3000 -2500 = 500

 so the delivery fee is 500 and the tiles cost 0.25 each

 so the equation would be y = 0.25x +500

Answer is C

Help me out asap!please and thank you

Answer:

c. (5, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

as we can clearly see, the 4th vertex has to be on the positive side of x.

therefore, all answer options with negative x are out.

(2, -5) is almost at D (-1, 5). that cannot be right for a rectangle.

that leaves only c as right answer.

FYI - how to get this without predefined answer portions ?

the x- difference of B to A is 4 (from -5 to -1). the x-difference from D to C must be the same (4). 1 + 4 = 5.

so, x of D must be 5.

the y- difference of B to A is 3 (from 3 to 6). the y-difference from D to C must be the same (3). -5 + 3 = -2.

so, y of D must be -2.
