    You didn't include the Mode or describe the Memorylessness property as described in part 1 of Geometric Distributions, just fyi.

    hi guys thank you very much for the tutorial videos.God bless you all.wish you cd also upload lessons on transformation of variables techniques as well as questions involving beta distributions and gamma as well.Thanks though

    This is good stuff but you could have easily done a change of base and call x-1 y, then multiple and divide inside series by (1-p)e^t. The [(1-p)e^t]^-1 will combine with [(1-p)e^t]^x to easily get you the moment. This looks simpler to me, your style is fine too.

    @6:53, shouldn't r be |r|

    how can we take out variance without double differentiating moment generating function or by another method

    Why is e^t * (1-p) < 1 ? I understand 1-p is always = 1, because 't' is non negative (correct me if this understanding is wrong)
    Then, how cum the above product be less than 1? This is a crucial assumption used in derivation for this lesson. Please explain. Need this URGENTLY!!!

      The MGF of a negative binomial is only defined for the values t < ln(1/(1-p)). You can think of {t: t < ln(1/(1-p)) } as the domain of the function M(t).

    The expectation? is it E(X) = 1/p or E(X) = (1-p)/p or these two are the same. Please explain I am confused

    Why is in minute 6: -1= 1-e^t(1-p)?

    • @StatCourses
      @StatCourses  7 років тому

      MyJansch, not sure I understand your question. Are you referring to the denominator or numerator?

    • @MyJansch
      @MyJansch 7 років тому

      In the numerator, we have to substract the -1, but instead of substracting minus 1 in the numerator you substracted 1-e^t(1-p)

    Hi, can any one explain to me why the Sigma of -1 is -1 instead of infinity?
