If X is transformed to Y = 2X + 3, what are the mean and standard deviation of Y?arrow_forwardLet X be a normal random variable with mean 85 and a variance of 25 (i.e., X ∼ N (85, 25)). step1: Let M = aX + b for some constants a, b not equal to 0. Write an expression for the pdf of M . step 2: Suppose that X represents an approximate distribution of the final scores in a certain math course (ignore the fact that this approximation can technically have scores that are greater than 100 or less than 0). If the teacher were to curve the scores, it means he would determine a function to apply to the scores to achieve a desired distribution (assume an affine function in this case, as in the previous part). Suppose he wants the scores to be normally distributed with mean 80 and a standard deviation of 4. What should he choose for a and b? What students would see their score lowered, and what students would see their score increased?arrow_forward
