Last year Lenny had an annual earned income of $58,475. He also had passive income of $1,255, and capital gains of $2,350. What
Lelechka [254]

<u>Answer:</u>  d. $62,080

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

<u></u>

The capital gain is the profit earned from an investment whereas the passive income is the income generated by very minimal daily efforts.

Given: Annual income earned by Lenny = \$58,475

Passive income =  \$1,255

Capital gain =  \$2,350

Now,  \text{Total gross income =Annual income+Passive income+Capital gain}

=\$58,475+\$1,255+\$2,350=\$62,080

Hence, Lenny's total gross income for the year = $62,080

Ice cream usually comes in 1.5-quart boxes (48 fluid ounces), and ice cream scoops hold about 2 ounces. However, there is some v
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

(a) The expected value and standard deviation of the amount of ice cream served at the party are 54 ounces and 1.25 ounces respectively.

(b) The expected value and standard deviation of the amount of ice cream left in the box after scooping out one scoop are 46 ounces and 1.031 ounces respectively.

(c) Because the variance of each variable is dependent on the other.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable <em>X</em> and <em>Y</em> are defined as follows:

<em>X</em> = amount of ice cream in the box

<em>Y</em> = amount of ice cream scooped out

The information provided is:

E (X) = 48

SD (X) = 1

V (X) = 1

E (Y) = 2

SD (Y) = 0.25

V (Y) = 0.0625

(a)

The total amount of ice-cream served at the party can be expressed as:

<em>X</em> + 3<em>Y</em>.

Compute the expected value of (<em>X</em> + 3<em>Y</em>) as follows:

E(X+3Y)=E(X)+3E(Y)\\= 48+(3\times2)\\=48+6\\=54

Compute the variance of (<em>X</em> + 3<em>Y</em>) as follows:

V(X+3Y) = V (X)+3^{2}V(Y)+2\times 3Cov (X,Y)\\=1+(9\times0.0625)+0\\=1.5625

Then the standard deviation of (<em>X</em> + 3<em>Y</em>) is:

SD(X + 3Y) =\sqrt{V(X + 3Y)}\\\sqrt{1.5625}\\=1.25

Thus, the expected value and standard deviation of the amount of ice cream served at the party are 54 ounces and 1.25 ounces respectively.

(b)

The amount of ice-cream left in the box after scooping out one scoop is represented as follows:

<em>X</em> - <em>Y</em>.

Compute the expected value of (<em>X</em> - <em>Y</em>) as follows:

E(X-Y)=E(X)-E(Y)\\=48-2\\=46

Compute the variance of (<em>X</em> - <em>Y</em>) as follows:

V(X - Y) =V(X)+V(Y)-2Cov(X,Y)\\=1+0.0625-0\\=1.0625

Then the standard deviation of (<em>X</em> - <em>Y</em>) is:

SD(X-Y) =\sqrt{V(X -Y)}\\\sqrt{1.0625}\\=1.031

Thus, the expected value and standard deviation of the amount of ice cream left in the box after scooping out one scoop are 46 ounces and 1.031 ounces respectively.

(c)

The variance of the sum or difference of two variables is computed by adding the individual variances. This is because the variance of each variable is dependent on the others.

Answer:

Neither are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of legs = the number of ants * 6.

The relationship is L = 6 a   so neither are correct.
