Hi, I have the following what looks to be simple question:
Suppose N~Poisson(m*theta)
Let X=N/m
Find Pr(X=x) (actually, f(x) is what they ask for, as X won't be discrete)
So I start with
Pr(X<=x)=Pr(N/m<=x)=Pr(N<=xm)
But where do I go from here?
The answer the book gives is: f(x)=Pr(N=xm)
How do I get there? If we employ methods used in continuous distributions, then what happened to the multiplicative factor m when we differentiate?
Many thanks
