This is an activity to explore the Moment Generating Functions for the Bernoulli, Binomial, Geometric and Negative-Binomial Distributions.
- Description: You can access the applets for the above distributions at http://www.socr.ucla.edu/htmls/SOCR_DistributionFunctors.html .
- Exercise 1: Use SOCR to graph the mgf's and print the following distributions and answer the questions below. Also, comment on the shape of each one of these distributions:
- a.\( X \sim Bernoulli(0.5) \)
- b.\( x \sim Binomial(1,0.5) \)
- c.\( x \sim Geometric(0.5) \)
- d.\( x \sim NegativeBinomial(1, 0.5) \)
