ANSWER:Solution
Step 1 of 2
We have to show that Y2 has a poisson distribution with mean
Given that Y1 and Y2 are two random variables
And W=Y1 + Y2
Here W has a poisson distribution with mean
And Y1 has a poisson distribution with mean
The moment generating function of X is
The moment generating function of W has a poisson distribution with mean is
The moment generating function of Y1 has a poisson distribution with mean is
