2. Let X ~ Pois (λ) λ > 0 a. Show explicitly that this family is “very regular,” that is, that R0,R1,R2,R3,R4 hold. R 0 - different parameter values have different functions. R1 - parameter space does not contain its own endpoints. R 2. - the set of points x where f (x, λ) is not zero and should not depend on λ . R 3. One derivative can be found with respect to λ. R 4. Two derivatives can...
