Set of Strictly Positive Real Numbers has no Smallest Element
Let $\R_{>0}$ denote the set of strictly positive real numbers. Then $\R_{>0}$ has no smallest element.
{{AimForCont}} $\R_{>0}$ has a smallest element. Let $m$ be that smallest element. Then we have that: :$0 < \dfrac m 2 < m$ But as $0 < \dfrac m 2$ it follows that $\dfrac m 2 \in \R_{>0}$. This contradicts our assertion that $m$ is the smallest element of $\R_{>0}$. Hence the result by Proof by Contradiction. {{qed}}

Excess Kurtosis of Bernoulli Distribution
Let $X$ be a discrete random variable with a Bernoulli distribution with parameter $p$. Then the excess kurtosis $\gamma_2$ of $X$ is given by: :$\gamma_2 = \dfrac {1 - 6 p q} {p q}$ where $q = 1 - p$.
From the definition of excess kurtosis, we have: :$\gamma_2 = \expect {\paren {\dfrac {X - \mu} \sigma}^4} - 3$ where: :$\mu$ is the expectation of $X$. :$\sigma$ is the standard deviation of $X$. By Expectation of Bernoulli Distribution, we have: :$\mu = p$ By Variance of Bernoulli Distribution, we have: :$\sigma...

Product of Limits of Real Sequences (1 + x over n)^n and (1 - x over n)^n equals 1
Let $\sequence {a_n}$ be the sequence defined as: :$a_n = \paren {1 + \dfrac x n}^n$ Let $\sequence {b_n}$ be the sequence defined as: :$b_n = \paren {1 - \dfrac x n}^n$ Then the product of the limits of $\sequence {a_n}$ and $\sequence {b_n}$ equals $1$
From Real Sequence $\paren {1 + \dfrac x n}^n$ is Convergent, $\sequence {a_n}$ is convergent. Setting $x \to -x$, it follows that $\sequence {\paren {1 + \dfrac {\paren {-x} } n}^n} = \sequence {b_n}$ is also convergent. Then: {{begin-eqn}} {{eqn | l = \paren {1 - \dfrac x n}^n \paren {1 - \dfrac x n}^n | r = \p...

Skewness of Gamma Distribution
Let $X \sim \map \Gamma {\alpha, \beta}$ for some $\alpha, \beta > 0$, where $\Gamma$ is the Gamma distribution. Then the skewness $\gamma_1$ of $X$ is given by: :$\gamma_1 = \dfrac 2 {\sqrt \alpha}$
