Can't figure these out, please help.

4. Suppose X and Y be independent normal random variables, with distributions N(μ, sigm) = N(5, 3) and N(2, 4) respectively. Let W = X + 2Y + 1.
Compute
(a) E(W); (b) V (W); (c) Prob(W < 0) (d) Cov(X,W) .
5. Suppose that X and Y are rv’s which only assume the values 0 and 1. Suppose that the joint pmf p(x, y) satisfies p(0, 0) = .3, p(0, 1) = .4, p(1, 0) = .2.
(a) What is p(1, 1)?
(b) Compute E(2X − Y ).
(c) Are X and Y independent?
(d) Compute the conditional pmf pX(x).
6. Suppose that the number of phone calls Tara receives in the evening is a Poisson process with rate 2 per hour, and the number of calls I receive is an independent Poisson process with rate 0.1 per hour.
(a) At 6 p.m., Tara returns home and happily waits for her next
phone call. What is the probability that she will get a call before 7:30 pm?
(b) What is the probability that at least one of us receives at least one phone call between 6 and 7:30 pm?

My parents have decided to go to Hawaii for their anniversary, and it will be their first time going. They want to know what island to go to? a general idea on what area to stay around? best time of year to go? etc

About them:
They are not really into super fancy romance, they are more laid back.
They are also interested in staying somewhere really pretty, they like to do outdoor activities like bike riding, hiking, swimming, etc... no extreme sports hahah

And basically just a good time, since its their first time they don't know what to expect or anything. Any advice or helpful hints will be welcomed, thanks :)

I did say "some" so lets not all get on me for labeling one group or the other.

For the record, I am Christian. I am sick and tired of seeing Christian discussions become prove it debates with no bleievers. I have known some really nice atheist people who disagree with my views but to me that is their personal right. I don't hide my views but I don't see it written where I'm supposed to tirelessly try to convert non believers. Isnt it more our job as christians to be available to them, live by example, and offer the truth then leave it up to the individual whether or not to believe it?

OK so to the non believers, why do some of you feel the need to attempt to disprove us? What is the problem for someone having their own beliefs? What if Christians are wrong? who cares? If we are then really is any harm done? If we are right however..... (cue the bass drums) Im just trying to figure out why it bothers you that we believe.

used by a defendent as evidence of innocense in a criminal proceeding? A man In Northwest Arkansas was charged and convicted for violating federal firearms charges. He was not allowed to present the second ammendment to the constitution as a defence. Is this possibly a point of a future appeal? Or is his fate sealed?

I have a small baby nad the California weather is waaaaayyy to hot. Does anyone have any ideas on how to keep the room cool? We have a celing fan (but it doesn't throw much air). We also have a window fan (for nighttime only since the night air is fresher). We don't have much money ... so we need those less expensive ways to cool the room. Please - my son and I have tried soooo many things ... and no avail.

I got a seven year old nephew who believes in Santa.

He is very obsessed with Santa and waits for him every year.

He frequently asks me why Santa can't come more often, so i decided to tell him the truth that santa is a made up fairytale for kids.

I felt he was old enough to stop day dreaming about Santa.

However, he refused to believe me and said he could feel Santa was real.

So i asked him how Santa could appear at everyone's home simultaneously. He told me that Santa is omnipotent and he respects Santa as God.

I told him that he should believe in Jesus, not Santa as God.

He told me that he oftenly prays to Santa and Santa frequently answers his prayers.

So I asked him how he was so sure it was not a coincidence.
So he told me that he got a relationship with Santa and he got faith in Santa that nothing can disprove.

He told me it was not about the prayers, but it was about the relationship that he could feel, and it feels very real for him.
