Find the mean and the variance


Let X be N(μ,σ2) and consider the transformation X = ln( Y ) or, equivalently, Y = eX. ( The random variable Y is said to have the lognormal distribution.)

a) Find the mean and the variance of Y by first determining E(eX) and E[(eX)^2], by using the mgf of X.

b) Let X be N( 10, 4 ) and Y = eX. Find P( 6,000 < Y < 18,000 ).
