#. Prove that in general $\P(A\cup B) = \P(A) + \P(B) - \P(A\cap B)$
   using only the three axioms. Hint: first write $A\cup B$ as the
   union of two disjunct sets.

#. Prove that $\E(aX+b) = a\E(X)+b$ for a discrete random variable.
   
#. Prove that $\Var(aX + b) = a^2\,\Var(X)$.


#. Prove that for $X\sim \text{Bernouilly}(p)$, the variance equals
   $\Var(X)=p(1-p)$.

#. Prove that for the Binomial Distribution the expectation $\E(X)=n
   p$.

#. Prove that for the Binomial Distribution the variance
   $\Var(X)=np(1-p)$.

   $\Uniform(a,b)$. Als give a proof.
