9. + 5/7 points Previous Answers DevoreStat9 4.E.013. My Notes + Ask Your Teacher 'Time headway" in traffic flow is the elapsed time between the time that one car finishes passing a fixed point and the instant that the next car begins to pass that point. Let x- the time headway for two randomly chosen consecutive cars on a freeway during a period of heavy flow (sec). Suppose that in a particular traffic environment, the distribution of time headway has...

L , Xn be a random sample from a population with pdf et X1,. . . 9x1, xe (0,1), 0, otherwise, where θ E Θ (0.00) (a) Find a confidence interval for θ with confidence coefficient 1-α by pivoting a random variable based on statistic T(X,)--Σ-1 log Xi. (Use quantiles of chi-square distributions to express the confidence interval and use equal-tail confidence interval) (b) Find the shortest I-α confidence interval for θ of the form a/T, b/T, where T(X,)...
