Let W be a random variable with μW=15\mu_W=15 and σW2=64\sigma_W^2=64 . Which of the following is the variance of Z=W−μWσWZ=\frac{W-\mu_W}{\sigma_W} ?

Answer explanation

Var(W−μWσW)=1σW2Var(W)=1σW2σW2=1Var\left(\frac{W-\mu_W}{\sigma_W}\right)=\frac{1}{\sigma_W^2}Var\left(W\right)=\frac{1}{\sigma_W^2}\sigma_W^2=1
