In some applications the distribution of a discrete RV, X resembles the Poisson distribution except that 0 is not a possible value of X. Consider such a RV with PMF
where 1 > 0 is a parameter, and c is a constant.
(a) Find the expression of c in terms of 1.
(b) Find E(X).
(Hint: You can use the fact that, if Y ~ Poisson(1), the E(Y) = 1.)
Suppose that X ~Bin(n,p). Show that
E[(1 - p)] = (1-p²)".
