C.

true or false: If X is a random variable with standard deviation 15, then the standard deviation of 2X is 30.

true

b.

Suppose X is always -3. Then σ_X^2= ____. A. -3 B. 9 C. 0 D. None of the above.

c

If X and Y are random variables with uX = 2 and uY = 8, then what is u2X+3Y? a) 34 b) 13 c) 28 d) 40

c.

true or false: Suppose X has a distribution with mean 10 and Y has a distribution with mean 20. The mean of X - Y is 30.

false

true or false: The number of accidents that occur at a certain intersection in a given year is a continuous random variable.

false

true or false: σ_(X-Y)^2=σ_X^2-σ_Y^2 if X and Y are independent.

false

true or false:μ_X always equals x ̅.

false

true or false: If Corr (X, Y) = 0 (i.e. ρ = 0), then X and Y are independent.

false

true or false: Let X be the temperature of an oven in degrees Fahrenheit. The variance of X is also expressed in degrees Fahrenheit but the standard deviation is not.

false

true or false: Suppose the variance of X equals 3 and the variance of Y equals 2. Suppose also that X and Y are independent. Then the variance of X - Y equals 3 + 2 = 5.

true
