Building on prior knowledge, this lecture employs MGFs to derive moments for Exponential and Normal distributions and determine the distribution of sums of Poissons. It also initiates the discussion on joint distributions.
We use MGFs to get moments of Exponential and Normal distributions, and to get the distribution of a sum of Poissons. We also start on joint distributions.
