Question 1
Calculate the moments for a random linked with an MGF M_X(t) = e^(2t + tΒ²). Find E[X] and Var(X).
π‘ Hint: Differentiate the MGF twice and evaluate at t=0.
Question 2
For a given random distribution represented by M_X(t) = p e^t + (1-p) e^(0.5t), show how to derive E[X] and its variance for p = 0.4.
π‘ Hint: Evaluate first and second derivatives, ensuring you substitute p correctly.
