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 \( \text{Var}(X) \).
