Q 6.3. Let X (X1, X2,..., Xn) be a random vector with mean vector and variance- (a1, a2,..., an)TER", the random variable covariance matrix E. Suppose that for every a = a X has a (one-dimensional) Gaussian distribution on R. (a) For fixed a ER", compute the moment generating function Marx (u) of the random variable a X writing the answer using and E. (b) Define Mx (t₁, t2, ..., tn), the moment generating function of the random vector X, and ex- press it in terms of Mr x the moment generating function of t X where t = (t1, t2,..., tn). (c) Combining (a) and (b), compute the moment generating function Mx (t) of X and hence prove that the random vector X has a Gaussian distribution.
