The second moment about mean of symmetrical distribution is 3.5. What must be the value of fourth moment about mean in order distribution will be lepto kurtic?
- 3.675
- 367.5
- 36.75
- None of these
Explanation
For a leptokurtic distribution, β₂ > 3:
β₂ = μ₄ / μ₂² > 3
Given μ₂ = 3.5:
μ₄ / (3.5)² > 3
μ₄ > 3 × 12.25
μ₄ > 36.75
