1. Suppose that X Unif(0, 30) and we draw a random sample X1,..., Xn Find the MME and compute its relative efficiency to 6, = 2X1-3X2. 2. In class, I showed the below picture. Here, I have changed the vertical axis from variance to SD. In this new picture, how can we visualize the MSE? How does this way of seeing the MSE help us decide which of two (possibly biased) estimators is more efficient? SD 04 Bias (B) 0...

Let X1, ..., Xn be IID observations from Uniform(0, θ). T(X) = max(X1, . . . Xn) is a sufficient statistic (additionally, T is the MLE for θ). Find a (1 − α)-level confidence interval for θ. [Note: The support of this distribution changes depending on the value of θ, so we cannot use Fisher’s approximation for the MLE because not all of the regularity assumptions hold.]
