Let X and Y be two independent random variables with X~ Poisson(ux) and Y ~Poisson(µy).(a) Show that the moment generating function (mgf) of X is Mx(t) = exp{µx (e² – 1)} =eHx(et –1).(b) Show that the mgf of X + Y is Mx+y(t) = exp{(µx + µy)(e* – 1)}(c) Based on the result in (b), what distribution does X +Y follow?(d) Use the mgf you found in (a) to show that E(X²) = µ3 + µx.
