Which of the following statements are true A For any discret
Which of the following statements are true?
A: For any discrete random variable X and constant a and b, V(aX = b) = (a+b)^2 V(X)
B: If a constant C is added to each possible value of a discrete random variable X, then the expected value of X will be shifted by the same constant amount.
C: If a constant C is added to each possible value of a discrete random variable X, the the variance of X will be shifted by that same constant amount>
D: For any discrete random variable X and constants a and b, E(aX + b) = (a+b)E(X)
Solution
Only (B) is true. Rest are false.
