Question:
Suppose X ∼ Poisson(λ), where λ > 0 is the mean parameter of X, and Y is a Bernoulli random variable with P[Y =1]=p and P[Y=0]=1−p.
(a) Calculate the moment generating function of Y .
(b) Assuming X and Y are independent, find the moment generating function of Z = X + Y . By differentiating the moment generating function of Z an appropriate number of times , find the mean and variance of Z.
(c) Determine the probability mass function of the conditional distribution Y |Z = z.
(d) Determine the probability mass function of the conditional distribution X|Z = z.
