Question:
Let \(X_{1}, X_{2}, \ldots, X_{8}\) be 8 independent random variables. Find the moment generating function
\[M_{\sum X_{i}}(t)=E\left(e^{t\left(X_{1}+X_{2}+\cdots+X_{8}\right)}\right)\]
of the sum when \(X_{i}\) has a Poisson distribution with mean
(a) \(\lambda_{i}=0.5\)
(b) \(\lambda_{i}=0.04\)
