Answer:
Option D
Step-by-step explanation:
Collect all like terms and Calculate
-10x-7x= -17x
20-54= -34
Divide
-17x < -34
x>2
1/4 is the answer is is a lower fraction
Answer:
Read the sentence below, which appears in the brochure “Nanotechnology: Big Things from a Tiny World.” As you read, look for context clues that could help you define any scientific terms.
Scientists have also developed sensors to measure pesticide levels in the field, allowing farmers to use less while still protecting their plants.
According to the context clues provided by the author, what is a pesticide?

I'll leave the computation via R to you. The
are distributed uniformly on the intervals
, so that

each with mean/expectation
![E[W_i]=\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^\infty wf_{W_i}(w)\,\mathrm dw=\int_0^{10i}\frac w{10i}\,\mathrm dw=5i](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E%5BW_i%5D%3D%5Cdisplaystyle%5Cint_%7B-%5Cinfty%7D%5E%5Cinfty%20wf_%7BW_i%7D%28w%29%5C%2C%5Cmathrm%20dw%3D%5Cint_0%5E%7B10i%7D%5Cfrac%20w%7B10i%7D%5C%2C%5Cmathrm%20dw%3D5i)
and variance
![\mathrm{Var}[W_i]=E[(W_i-E[W_i])^2]=E[{W_i}^2]-E[W_i]^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathrm%7BVar%7D%5BW_i%5D%3DE%5B%28W_i-E%5BW_i%5D%29%5E2%5D%3DE%5B%7BW_i%7D%5E2%5D-E%5BW_i%5D%5E2)
We have
![E[{W_i}^2]=\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^\infty w^2f_{W_i}(w)\,\mathrm dw=\int_0^{10i}\frac{w^2}{10i}\,\mathrm dw=\frac{100i^2}3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E%5B%7BW_i%7D%5E2%5D%3D%5Cdisplaystyle%5Cint_%7B-%5Cinfty%7D%5E%5Cinfty%20w%5E2f_%7BW_i%7D%28w%29%5C%2C%5Cmathrm%20dw%3D%5Cint_0%5E%7B10i%7D%5Cfrac%7Bw%5E2%7D%7B10i%7D%5C%2C%5Cmathrm%20dw%3D%5Cfrac%7B100i%5E2%7D3)
so that
![\mathrm{Var}[W_i]=\dfrac{25i^2}3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathrm%7BVar%7D%5BW_i%5D%3D%5Cdfrac%7B25i%5E2%7D3)
Now,
![E[W_1+W_2+W_3]=E[W_1]+E[W_2]+E[W_3]=5+10+15=30](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E%5BW_1%2BW_2%2BW_3%5D%3DE%5BW_1%5D%2BE%5BW_2%5D%2BE%5BW_3%5D%3D5%2B10%2B15%3D30)
and
![\mathrm{Var}[W_1+W_2+W_3]=E\left[\big((W_1+W_2+W_3)-E[W_1+W_2+W_3]\big)^2\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathrm%7BVar%7D%5BW_1%2BW_2%2BW_3%5D%3DE%5Cleft%5B%5Cbig%28%28W_1%2BW_2%2BW_3%29-E%5BW_1%2BW_2%2BW_3%5D%5Cbig%29%5E2%5Cright%5D)
![\mathrm{Var}[W_1+W_2+W_3]=E[(W_1+W_2+W_3)^2]-E[W_1+W_2+W_3]^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathrm%7BVar%7D%5BW_1%2BW_2%2BW_3%5D%3DE%5B%28W_1%2BW_2%2BW_3%29%5E2%5D-E%5BW_1%2BW_2%2BW_3%5D%5E2)
We have

![E[(W_1+W_2+W_3)^2]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E%5B%28W_1%2BW_2%2BW_3%29%5E2%5D)
![=E[{W_1}^2]+E[{W_2}^2]+E[{W_3}^2]+2(E[W_1]E[W_2]+E[W_1]E[W_3]+E[W_2]E[W_3])](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3DE%5B%7BW_1%7D%5E2%5D%2BE%5B%7BW_2%7D%5E2%5D%2BE%5B%7BW_3%7D%5E2%5D%2B2%28E%5BW_1%5DE%5BW_2%5D%2BE%5BW_1%5DE%5BW_3%5D%2BE%5BW_2%5DE%5BW_3%5D%29)
because
and
are independent when
, and so
![E[(W_1+W_2+W_3)^2]=\dfrac{100}3+\dfrac{400}3+300+2(50+75+150)=\dfrac{3050}3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E%5B%28W_1%2BW_2%2BW_3%29%5E2%5D%3D%5Cdfrac%7B100%7D3%2B%5Cdfrac%7B400%7D3%2B300%2B2%2850%2B75%2B150%29%3D%5Cdfrac%7B3050%7D3)
giving a variance of
![\mathrm{Var}[W_1+W_2+W_3]=\dfrac{3050}3-30^2=\dfrac{350}3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathrm%7BVar%7D%5BW_1%2BW_2%2BW_3%5D%3D%5Cdfrac%7B3050%7D3-30%5E2%3D%5Cdfrac%7B350%7D3)
and so the standard deviation is 
# # #
A faster way, assuming you know the variance of a linear combination of independent random variables, is to compute
![\mathrm{Var}[W_1+W_2+W_3]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathrm%7BVar%7D%5BW_1%2BW_2%2BW_3%5D)
![=\mathrm{Var}[W_1]+\mathrm{Var}[W_2]+\mathrm{Var}[W_3]+2(\mathrm{Cov}[W_1,W_2]+\mathrm{Cov}[W_1,W_3]+\mathrm{Cov}[W_2,W_3])](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3D%5Cmathrm%7BVar%7D%5BW_1%5D%2B%5Cmathrm%7BVar%7D%5BW_2%5D%2B%5Cmathrm%7BVar%7D%5BW_3%5D%2B2%28%5Cmathrm%7BCov%7D%5BW_1%2CW_2%5D%2B%5Cmathrm%7BCov%7D%5BW_1%2CW_3%5D%2B%5Cmathrm%7BCov%7D%5BW_2%2CW_3%5D%29)
and since the
are independent, each covariance is 0. Then
![\mathrm{Var}[W_1+W_2+W_3]=\mathrm{Var}[W_1]+\mathrm{Var}[W_2]+\mathrm{Var}[W_3]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathrm%7BVar%7D%5BW_1%2BW_2%2BW_3%5D%3D%5Cmathrm%7BVar%7D%5BW_1%5D%2B%5Cmathrm%7BVar%7D%5BW_2%5D%2B%5Cmathrm%7BVar%7D%5BW_3%5D)
![\mathrm{Var}[W_1+W_2+W_3]=\dfrac{25}3+\dfrac{100}3+75=\dfrac{350}3](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cmathrm%7BVar%7D%5BW_1%2BW_2%2BW_3%5D%3D%5Cdfrac%7B25%7D3%2B%5Cdfrac%7B100%7D3%2B75%3D%5Cdfrac%7B350%7D3)
and take the square root to get the standard deviation.
