Starting weight: 5/6 lb. Of this, Jan used 1/5, which would be (1/5)(5/6) lb,
or 1/6 lb, leaving 4/6 lb, or 2/3 lb. unused.

2/3 lb
Now divide 2/3 lb by 8 portions: ----------------- = (2/24) lb/portion, or
8 portions

Answer:

The co variance of the midterm and final exam scores is 58.76.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to compute the sample co variance is:

$Cov(x,y)=\frac{\sum(X-Mean\ of\ X)(Y-Mean\ of\ Y)}{n-1}$

The values are computed in the table below.

Compute the co variance as follows:

$Cov(x,y)=\frac{\sum(X-Mean\ of\ X)(Y-Mean\ of\ Y)}{n-1}\\=\frac{646.33}{12-1}\\ =58.76$

Thus, the co variance of the midterm and final exam scores is 58.76.
