Let Y1, Y2,..., Yn be independent and identically distributed random variables such that for 0 < p < 1, P(Yi = 1) = p and P(Yi = 0) = q = 1 p. (Such random variables are called Bernoulli random variables.) a Find the moment-generating function for the Bernoulli random variable Y1. b Find the moment-generating function for W = Y1 + Y2 ++ Yn . c What is the distribution of W?
