Question
24. Let, for m 1, X1, X2, ... be independent random variables with E X, =
m", n 1, let N E Po(A) be independent of X1, X2.
and set
Z = X, + X, + 4 XN.
Determine E Z.
Remark. Note that X, X. . are NOT identieally distributed, that is,
the usual "ESN = EN EX does NOT work: you have to modify the
proof of that formula.
