Prove the formulas given in the table at the beginning of Section 3.4 for the Bernoulli, Poisson, Uniform, Exponential, Gamma, and Beta. Here are some hints. For the mean of the Poisson, use the fact that! ea = 2 , a"/x!. To compute the variance, first compute E(X(X - 1)). For the mean of the Gamma, it will help to multiply and divide by [(a+1)/Ba+1 and use the fact that a Gamma density integrates to 1.! For the Beta, multiply...
