For each of the following distributions, verify the formulas for EX and Var X given in the
Question:
(a) Verify Var X if X has a Poisson (λ) distribution. (Compute EX(X - 1) = EX2 - EX.)

(c) Verify Var X if X has a gamma(α, β) distribution.
(d) Verify EX and Var X if X has a beta(μ, σ) distribution.
