Estimator properties: 6 Estimators properties 6.1 Exercise 1 In order to estimate the average number of hours that children spend watching tv, a Bernoulli sample of size n = 5 children was selected from a primary school. Let X be the variable that represents the hours spent watching tv, let E(X)-μ the parameter to estimate and var(X-σ2 the variance. Compare the following two proposed estimators Τι 1. Compare the two estimators for u on the basis of their bias 2....
