Question

Let X1...Xn be independent, identically distributed random sample from a poisson distribution with mean theta.

a. Find the meximum liklihood estimator of theta, thetahat

b. find the large sample distribution for (sqrt(n))*(thetahat-theta)

c. Construct a large sample confidence interval for P(X=k; theta)
