I found the MGF of X of the Uniform(-5,5) random variable to be 1/(10t)(e^(5t)-e^(-5t)) and I was wondering if you could help me calculate the expectation and variance of Y, given X is independent and Y = X1+X2+X3X4+X5 . I got the expectation and variance of Y to both be zero after differentiating the MGF and subtituitng t=0,but i dont think thats correct. Please could you help,thanks
