Question 4
The Poisson random variable X, has pmf
f(x) = Ae, for z = 0, 1, 2, 3,... Which of the following is FALSE?
O The Poisson random variable is often used to model the number events occurring in non-overlapping intervals of time.
O EX] =A = Var[X].
O X is a memoryless random variable.
O The Poisson distribution is reproductive; that is, the sum of independent Poissoni distributed random variables will be another Poisson
distributed random variable.
