(choose chapter or problem)

Refer to Exercises 4.141 and 4.137. Suppose that Y is uniformly distributed on the interval (0, 1) and that a > 0 is a constant. a Give the moment-generating function for Y . b Derive the moment-generating function of W = aY . What is the distribution of W? Why? c Derive the moment-generating function of X = aY . What is the distribution of X? Why? d If b is a fixed constant, derive the moment-generating function of V = aY + b. What is the distribution of V? Why?
