Let X be a random variable and Y = 2X + 1. What is the variance of Y if variance of X is 5?
उत्तर
Var(X) = 5
Var(Y) = var(2x + 1) .......{∴ v(ax + b) = a2v(x)}
= (2)2var(X)
= 4(5)
Var() = 20

The number of miles an automobile tire lasts before it reaches a critical point in tread wear can be represented by a p.d.f.
f(x) = `{{:(1/30 "e"^(- x/30)",", "for" x > 0),(0",", "for" x ≤ 0):}`
