![**Section II**
11. Assume \( X \) is a random variable with moment generating function
\[
M(t) = (0.3e^{4t} + 0.7)^3, \quad -\infty < t < \infty.
\]
Note that no special type of random variable we have studied thus far in MAT 353 has this moment generating function.
(a) Compute \( E(X) \).
(b) Compute \( \text{Var}(X) \).](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F653b506a-bf1f-413c-8a44-59b8a78c6c88%2F15d68c5e-278b-413c-a0e1-6158548ddaa3%2Fmvf3wt_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
