X values are different for a relation to be a function.
B is your answer!
Corn Grits : Water
1/4 : 1/2
1/4 x 4 : 1/2 x 4
1 : 2
3/2 : 2 x 3/2
1 1/2 : 3
So he will need 3 cup of water if he uses 1 1/2 cup of corns grits.
![\Bbb E[Y^2] = \Bbb E[(4X - 2)^2]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CBbb%20E%5BY%5E2%5D%20%3D%20%5CBbb%20E%5B%284X%20-%202%29%5E2%5D)
so by definition of expectation,
![\Bbb E[Y^2] = \displaystyle \int_{-\infty}^\infty (4x-2)^2 f_X(x) \, dx = \int_0^\infty 3(4x-2)^2 e^{-3x} \, dx](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5CBbb%20E%5BY%5E2%5D%20%3D%20%5Cdisplaystyle%20%5Cint_%7B-%5Cinfty%7D%5E%5Cinfty%20%284x-2%29%5E2%20f_X%28x%29%20%5C%2C%20dx%20%3D%20%5Cint_0%5E%5Cinfty%203%284x-2%29%5E2%20e%5E%7B-3x%7D%20%5C%2C%20dx)
Integrate by parts (twice).

First, let

so that
![\displaystyle \Bbb E[Y^2] = -(4x-2)^2 e^{-3x} \bigg|_{x=0}^{x\to\infty} + 8 \int_0^\infty (4x-2) e^{-3x} \, dx \\\\ ~~~~ = 4 + 8 \int_0^\infty (4x-2) e^{-3x} \, dx](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdisplaystyle%20%5CBbb%20E%5BY%5E2%5D%20%3D%20-%284x-2%29%5E2%20e%5E%7B-3x%7D%20%5Cbigg%7C_%7Bx%3D0%7D%5E%7Bx%5Cto%5Cinfty%7D%20%2B%208%20%5Cint_0%5E%5Cinfty%20%284x-2%29%20e%5E%7B-3x%7D%20%5C%2C%20dx%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%20~~~~%20%3D%204%20%2B%208%20%5Cint_0%5E%5Cinfty%20%284x-2%29%20e%5E%7B-3x%7D%20%5C%2C%20dx)
Next,

so that
![\displaystyle \Bbb E[Y^2] = 4 + 8 \left(-\frac13 (4x-2) e^{-3x} \bigg|_{x=0}^{x\to\infty} + \frac43 \int_0^\infty e^{-3x} \, dx\right) \\\\ ~~~~ = 4 + 8 \left(-\frac23 - \frac49 e^{-3x}\bigg|_{x=0}^{x\to\infty}\right) \\\\ ~~~~ = 4 - \frac{16}3 + \frac{32}9 = \boxed{\frac{20}9}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdisplaystyle%20%5CBbb%20E%5BY%5E2%5D%20%3D%204%20%2B%208%20%5Cleft%28-%5Cfrac13%20%284x-2%29%20e%5E%7B-3x%7D%20%5Cbigg%7C_%7Bx%3D0%7D%5E%7Bx%5Cto%5Cinfty%7D%20%2B%20%5Cfrac43%20%5Cint_0%5E%5Cinfty%20e%5E%7B-3x%7D%20%5C%2C%20dx%5Cright%29%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%20~~~~%20%3D%204%20%2B%208%20%5Cleft%28-%5Cfrac23%20-%20%5Cfrac49%20e%5E%7B-3x%7D%5Cbigg%7C_%7Bx%3D0%7D%5E%7Bx%5Cto%5Cinfty%7D%5Cright%29%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%20~~~~%20%3D%204%20-%20%5Cfrac%7B16%7D3%20%2B%20%5Cfrac%7B32%7D9%20%3D%20%5Cboxed%7B%5Cfrac%7B20%7D9%7D)
Answer:
Infinite number of solutions.
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -7x - 2
y + 3 = -7x + 1
Subtract 3 from both sides:
y = -7x - 2
- this is the same as the first equation.
We can put any number of valid combinations of x and y into this equation.
So there are infinite solutions.
