The random variable X has mean equal to 10 and variance equal to 9.
the random variable Y has a mean equal to 10 and a variance of 9.
Let Z = X/Y+3 , The mean of Z is
a) 3
b) 4
c) 22
d) None of these.
This is an incomplete question. How are X and Y related? This information is crucial to answer this.
For example:
If Y = X, then E(Z) = E(X/Y) + 3 = 4.
If Y is independent of X, then E(Z) = E(X/Y) + 3 = E(X)E(1/Y) + 3 = 10E(1/Y) + 3 = ? (the information given in the question is not sufficient to answer this)
and so on.
