  1. SOLUTION

    TO CHOOSE THE CORRECT OPTION

    Let X and Y be two independent random variables with Var(X) = 9 and Var(Y) = 3 then Var(4X- 2Y + 6)

    a) 9

    b) 81

    c) 156

    d)256

    FORMULA TO BE IMPLEMENTED

    We are aware of the formula on variance that

    [tex] \sf{Var(aX + bY + c) = {a}^{2}Var(X) + {b}^{2} Var(Y)}[/tex]

    EVALUATION

    Here it is given that Var(X) = 9 and Var(Y) = 3

    Now

    [tex] \sf{Var(4X – 2Y + 6) }[/tex]

    [tex] \sf{= {4}^{2}Var(X) + {( – 2)}^{2} Var(Y)}[/tex]

    [tex] \sf{= 16Var(X) + 4 Var(Y)}[/tex]

    [tex] \sf{= (16 \times 9)+ (4 \times 3)}[/tex]

    [tex] \sf{=144 + 12}[/tex]

    [tex] \sf{= 156}[/tex]

    FINAL ANSWER

    Hence the correct option is c) 156
