How do you obtain the moment generating function of a Poisson distribution?
Using the Taylor series expansion of the exponential function. See related links
What is lambda in statistics?
Lamdba (like most Greek letters in statistics) usually denotes a parameter of a distribution (usually of Poisson, gamma or exponential distributions). This will specify the entire distribution and allow for numerical analysis of the probability generating, moment generating, probability density/mass, distribution and/or cumulant functions (along with all moments), as and where these are defined.
IF two variables that have the same mean and standard deviation have the same distribution?
No, a distribution can have infinitely many moments: the first is the mean, the second variance. Then there are skewness (3), kurtosis (4), hyperskewness (5), hyperflatness (6) and so on.If mk represents the kth moment, thenmk = E[(X - m1)k] where E is the expected value.It is, therefore, perfectly possible for m1 and m2 to be the same but for the distribution to differ at the higher moments.
What does instataneous mean?
You mean instantaneous - means happening or completed in a moment, with no delay, immediate
The Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient r requires that variables are measured with?
Either an Interval or an Ordinal Scale
How do you derive the moment generating function of an exponential distribution?
To derive the moment generating function of an exponential distribution, you can use the definition of the moment generating function E(e^(tX)) where X is an exponential random variable with parameter λ. Substitute the probability density function of the exponential distribution into the moment generating function formula and simplify the expression to obtain the final moment generating function for the exponential distribution, which is M(t) = λ / (λ - t) for t < λ.
How is the mgf of Hypergeometric distribution driven?

What is the moment generating function for normal distribution with mean 20 and variance 25?
It is exp(20t + 25/2*t^2).
Inverse Gaussian distribution-discuss moment and maximum likelyhood estimation?
I've included two links. The MLE of parameters of NIG distribution is the subject of current research as attached. The moment generating function is provided in the first link.
How do you derive Moment generating function of Pareto distribution?
The moment generating function for any real valued probability distribution is the expected value of e^tX provided that the expectation exists.For the Type I Pareto distribution with tail index a, this isa*[-x(m)t)^a*Gamma[-a, -x(m)t)] for t < 0, where x(m) is the scale parameter and represents the least possible positive value of X.
Moment generating and the cumulant generating function of poisson distribution?
The moment generating function is M(t) = Expected value of e^(xt) = SUM[e^(xt)f(x)] and for the Poisson distribution with mean a inf = SUM[e^(xt).a^x.e^(-a)/x!] x=0 inf = e^(-a).SUM[(ae^t)^x/x!] x=0 = e^(-a).e^(ae^t) = e^[a(e^t -1)]

How do you obtain moment generating function Log-normal distribution?
You cannot because it does not exist.Although all the moments of the lognormal distribution do exist, the distribution is not uniquely determined by its moments. One of the consequences of this is that the expected values E[e^tX] does not converge for any positive t.
