1. Let X be a binomially distributed random variable with parameters n and p (n trials with success probability p). (a) What is E (X2) ? (b) Let X be defined as before (n trials with success probability p) and let Y be an independent binomial random variable based on m trials and a success probability of 7. Find E(W) and Var(W), where W = 4X + 6Y
