The first four moments of a distribution about the value 4 are 1,4,10,45.
Calculate moment about meanSolution:The first four moments of a distribution about the value 4 are
`M_1=1`
`M_2=4`
`M_3=10`
`M_4=45`
Find Central moments using Moments about the value 4First Central Moment`m_1=0`
Second Central Moment`m_2=M_2-M_1^2`
`=4-1^2`
`=4-1`
`=3`
Third Central Moment`m_3=M_3-3M_2M_1+2M_1^3`
`=10-3*4*1+2*1^3`
`=10-12+2`
`=0`
Fourth Central Moment`m_4=M_4-4M_3M_1+6M_2M_1^2-3M_1^4`
`=45-4*10*1+6*4*1^2-3*1^4`
`=45-40+24-3`
`=26`
