Let X and Y be independent random variables with X ~ N(2, 4) and Y ~ N(-4, 9). Given φ(1) = 0.8413, φ(2) = 0.9772, and φ(3) = 0.9987, where φ(·) is the CDF of a standard normal distribution. Which of the following statements is true?
- 1Var(2X + Y) = 17
- 2P(|2X + Y| ≤ 15) = 0.9974✓
- 3Cov(3X + 2Y, 3X - 2Y) = 0
- 42X - Y ~ N(0, 25)
Correct answer
P(|2X + Y| ≤ 15) = 0.9974
