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.

natulia [17]
Bob brought 3 autographed baseball for show and tell.Now, that 3 autographed is said to be 1/6 of his whole collection.Let's find out how many autographed did Bob have in total.=> 3 autographed = 1/6 of his collections.To be able to have a value of 1 whole collections we need 6 1/6s=> 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 = 6/6 or 1Thus, the value of his current autographed in hand will be multiplied with 6=> 3 * 6 = 18<span>Therefore, he have a total of 18 autographed.</span>
