Question:

a. Prove that \(\kappa_{4}=\mu_{4}^{\prime}-4 \mu_{3}^{\prime} \mu_{1}^{\prime}-3\left(\mu_{2}^{\prime}ight)^{2}+12 \mu_{2}^{\prime}\left(\mu_{1}^{\prime}ight)^{2}-6\left(\mu_{1}^{\prime}ight)^{4}\).

b. Prove that \(\kappa_{4}=\mu_{4}-3 \mu_{2}^{2}\), which is often called the kurtosis of a random variable.

c. Suppose that \(X\) is an \(\operatorname{Exponential}(\theta)\) random variable. Compute the fourth cumulant of \(X\).
