X and y are normal random variables with e(x) = 2, v(x) = 5, e(y) = 6, v(y) = 8 and cov(x,y)=2. determine the following: e(3x 2y) (2 points) v(3x 2y) (4 points) find p(3x 2y>20) (4 points)

Any normally distributed random variable having mean = 0 and standard deviation = 1 is referred to as a standard normal random variable. The letter Z will always be used to represent it.

Now, according to the question;

The given normal random variables are;

E(X) = 2, V(X) = 5, E(Y) = 6, and V(Y) = 8.

Part a.

Consider E(3X + 2Y)

[tex]\begin{aligned}E(3 X+2 Y) &=3 E(X)+2 E(Y) \\&=(3) (2)+(2)(6 )\\&=18\end{aligned}[/tex]

Part b.

Consider V(3X + 2Y)

[tex]\begin{aligned}V(3 X+2 Y) &=3^{2} V(X)+2^{2} V(Y) \\&=(9)(5)+(4)(8) \\&=77\end{aligned}[/tex]

Part c.

Consider P(3X + 2Y < 18)

A normal random variable is also linear combination of two independent normal random variables.

[tex]3 X+2 Y \sim N(18,77)[/tex]

Thus,

[tex]P(3 X+2 Y < 18)=0.5[/tex]

Part d.

Consider P(3X + 2Y < 28)

[tex]Z=\frac{(3 X+2 Y-18)}{\sqrt{77}}[/tex]

[tex]\begin{aligned} P(3X + 2Y < 28)&=P\left(\frac{3 X+2 Y-18}{\sqrt{77}} < \frac{28-18}{\sqrt{77}}\right) \\&=P(Z < 1.14) \\&=0.8729\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, the values for the given normal random variables are found.
