Question: 47. Let X be a normal random variable with mean and variance . Use the results of Theoretical Exercise 46 to show that E[X^n]

47. Let X be a normal random variable with mean µ and variance σ². Use the results of Theoretical Exercise 46 to show that E[X^n] = ∑ (n/2j) (µ^(n-2j)) (σ²(2j)) / 2j!

j=0
