b) Consider a random variable K with parameter p, whose probability mass function (PM given by f(k) = { elsewhere pqk-1, k=1,2,... ... ... i) Derive the moment generating function of K. ii) Use the result obtained in i), to find the expected value of K. iii) Use the result obtained in i), to find the variance of value of K.
