= Solution
For every $\lambda\in\mathbb R^2$, the scalar $\lambda^TX$ is normal with mean $\lambda^T\mu$ and variance $\lambda^TV\lambda$. The <moment-generating function of a normal distribution> therefore gives
$$
\boxed{M_X(\lambda)=\exp\left(\lambda^T\mu+\frac12\lambda^TV\lambda\right)}.
$$
\b[Thus $\mu$ and $V$ determine the moment-generating function on all of $\mathbb R^2$. By the <uniqueness theorem for moment-generating functions>, they uniquely determine the <probability distribution> of $X$.]
