σ2). 6. Suppose X1, Yİ, X2, Y2, , Xn, Y, are independent rv's with Xi and Y both N(μ, All parameters μί, 1-1, ,n, and σ2 are unknown. For example, Xi and Yi muay be repeated measurements on a laboratory specimen from the ith individual, with μί representing the amount of some antigen in the specimen; the measuring instrument is inaccurate, with normally distributed errors with constant variability. Let Z, X/V2. (a) Consider the estimate σ2- (b) Show that the...
Let yı, y2,-. ., yn be a sample drawn from a normal population with unknown mean μ an model d unknown variance σ2. One way to estimate μ is to fit the linear (2.61) and use the least squares (LS), that is, to minimize the sum of squares, Σ (Vi-A)2. Another way is to use the least absolute value (L AV), that is, to minimize the sum of absolute value of the vertical distances, Σ bi-μ| (a) Show that the...
Suppose that Y1 , Y2 ,..., Yn denote a random sample of size n from a normal population with mean μ and variance 2 . Problem # 2: Suppose that Y , Y,,...,Y, denote a random sample of size n from a normal population with mean u and variance o . Then it can be shown that (n-1)S2 p_has a chi-square distribution with (n-1) degrees of freedom. o2 a. Show that S2 is an unbiased estimator of o. b....
Yi, Y2...., Yn is a random sample from the Uniform distribution ([a, b]). Let u to be the population mean, one wants to test Ho : μ = 1 against Ha : μ 1. Suppose n is large, and both the one-sample t-test and the binomial test can be applied here. Derive the approximate analytic formula for computing the power for each of the test. Besides the sample size n and significance level α, what quantity is essential in the...
Could I grab some help on problem 2? Thank you 2. Suppose Yi, Yn are iid normal random variables with normal distribution with unknown mean and variance, μ and ơ2. Let Y ni Y. For this problem you may not assume that n is large. n (a) What is the distribution of Y? (b) What is the distribution of Z = (yo)' + ( μ)' + (⅓ュ)? (o) What is the distribution of ta yis (d) What is the distribution...
Let Y, Y2, ..., Yn be n i.i.d random variables drawn from the population distribution of Y-(My, oy). Suppose we want to estimate My and we are asked to choose between two possible estimators of Wy: (1)Y, and (2) Y = (x + 3) (a) Show both estimators are unbiased (2 points) (b) Derive the variance of both estimators and discuss which estimator is more efficient (3 points)
A random sample of n measurements was selected from a population with unknown mean μ and standard deviation σ = 35 for each of the situations in parts a through d. Calculate a 99% confidence interval for μ for each of these situations. a. n = 75, x = 20 Interval: ( _____, _____ ) b. n = 150, x = 104 Interval: ( _____, _____ ) c. n = 90, x = 16 Interval: ( _____, _____ ) d....
Let Yı, Y2, ..., Yn iid N (4,02), where the population mean and population variance o2 are both unknown.

Let Y1, Y2, , Yn be independent, normal random variables, each with mean μ and variance σ^2. (a) Find the density function of f Y(u) = (b) If σ^2 = 25 and n = 9, what is the probability that the sample mean, Y, takes on a value that is within one unit of the population mean, μ? That is, find P(|Y − μ| ≤ 1). (Round your answer to four decimal places.) P(|Y − μ| ≤ 1) = (c)...
iid Let Yı, Y2, ..., Yn N(u,), where the population mean y and population variance o are both unknown.
