Answer:

The mean and standard devaition of W are 6 and 31 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

W = 7 + 2X

Variance (W) = Variance(7 + 2X)

For a term constant term, the variance is zero.

So;

W = Var (2X)

W = 4 × Var(X)

W = 4 × (SD (X))²

W = 4 × (3)²

W = 4 × 9

W = 36

Thus, Variance (W) = 36

The standard deviation of W = \sqrt{variance}

W = \sqrt{36}

W = 6

Also;

E(W) = E(7 +2 X)

E(W) = 7 + 2 × E(X)

where;

mean X = 12

E(W) = 7 + 2(12)

E(W) = 31

Thus, the mean and standard devaition of W are 6 and 31 respectively.

krek1111 [17]
Hyp^2 = leg1^2 + leg2^2
hyp^2  -leg1^2 = leg2^2
17^2 - 8^2 = leg2^2
leg2^2 = 289 -64
leg2^2 = 225
leg2 = 15
