10 tennis players participate in a round robin tournament. This means thatevery player plays everybody else exactly once, hence each player plays 9 matches. Assumethat the outcomes of the matches are random: in each match each of the two players winswith probability 0.5 independently of the outcomes of the other matches.
(a) Compute the expected number of players that have exactly 2 wins.(
(b) LetXbe the random variable of the number of players that have exactly 0 wins. ComputeE(X).
(c) ComputeE(X(X−1)).
(d) ComputeV ar(X).
(e) Compute thenth factorial momentE(X(X−1)...(X−n+ 1)).
(f) Compute thenth momentE(Xn) for alln≥1.
(g) (Bonus) Compute the moment generating functionMX(t) ofX.

Prove (a) cosh2(x) − sinh2(x) = 1 and (b) 1 − tanh 2(x) = sech 2(x). solution (a) cosh2(x) − sinh2(x) = ex + e−x 2 2 − 2 = e2x + 2 + e−2x 4 − = 4 = . (b) we start with the identity proved in part (a): cosh2(x) − sinh2(x) = 1. if we divide both sides by cosh2(x), we get 1 − sinh2(x) cosh2(x) = 1 or 1 − tanh 2(x) = .
