The number of people in a car that crosses a certain bridge is represented by the random variable x, which has a mean value μx = 2.7, and a variance σ2x = 1.2. the toll on the bridge is $3.00 per car plus $ .50 per person in the car. determine the mean and variance of the total amount of money that is collected from a car that crosses the bridge.

step-by-step explanation:

given : the shape of his satellite can be modeled by   where x and y are modeled in inches.

now,the given equation   is a equation of parabola.

here, coefficient of x is positive, hence the parabola opens rightwards.

on comparing this equation with standard equation , we get

in standard equation, coordinates of focus=(0,m)

thus for given equation coordinates of focus=(0,1.5)
