5.1)
since
Hence true
5.2)
for testing the mean if there is no infomration about population variance then we will use t statistics
Hence
FALSE
5.3)
MLE of Variance of normal distribution is always biaesd
Hence
FALSE
5.4)
margin of error is directly proportional to confidence level so decreasing the confidence interval result in decrease in confidence interval hence confidence interval become narrower
Hence
TRUE
5.5)
a biased estimator can be efficient
Hence
FALSE

True or False? The higher the confidence level, the narrower is the confidence interval for the mean. Select an answer The most efficient point estimator for the population mean ù is the sample median . Select an answer • To reduce the width of a confidence interval, we can increase the sample size n. Select an answer • As long as the population is normal with variance o’, the statistic (n-1) S2 has a Chi-squared 02 distribution with n degrees...

4. Let X be a random variable with pdf f(x). Suppose that the mean of X is 2 and the variance of X is 5. It is easy to show that the pdf of Y = 0X is fo(y) = f(1/0) (You do not have to show this, but it's good practice.) Suppose the popula- tion has the distribution of foly) with 8 unknown. We take a random sample {Y}}=1 and compute the sample mean Y. (a) What is a...
