The amount filled (Y) by a certain bottling machine is a random variable that follows a Normal distribution with unknown mean and unknown variance. Based on a sample of n=19, the two-sided 98% confidence for u, is (8.72, 10.63). What are the values of the sample mean and sample variance?
Show all working clearly. Thank you.

3. Suppose that the 5-year survival probability, X, for women with breast cancer who live in a rural county follows Beta distribution with probability density function (pdf) fx (20) = 0.00-1 where 0 < x < 1 and parameter 6 > 0. Let X1, ..., X, be a random sample of size n from a population of rural counties. Researchers intend to make statistical inference on the parameter 6 using collected data X1, ..., (a) Let Y; = – log(Xi)...
During an eight-hour shift, the proportion of time Y that a sheet-metal stamping machine is down for maintenance or repairs has a beta distribution with a 1 and B 2. That is, 2(1 - y), 0s ys 1, f(y) lo, elsewhere. The cost (in hundreds of dollars) of this downtime, due to lost production and cost of maintenance and repair, is given by C your answers to two decimal places.) 50Y 2y. Find the mean and variance of C. (Round...
7. Suppose that waiting time, Y, at a particular restaurant follows an Exponential distribution with mean X, where X is a Geometric random variable with mean 1/ p. Find the unconditional mean and variance of Y.

Return to the original model. We now introduce a Poisson intensity parameter X for every time point and denote the parameter () that gives the canonical exponential family representation as above by θ, . We choose to employ a linear model connecting the time points t with the canonical parameter of the Poisson distribution above, i.e., n other words, we choose a generalized linear model with Poisson distribution and its canonical link function. That also means that conditioned on t,...
Consider the following point estimators, W, X, Y, and Z of μ: W = (x1 + x2)/2; X = (2x1 + x2)/3; Y = (x1 + 3x2)/4; and Z = (2x1 + 3x2)/5. Assuming that x1 and x2 have both been drawn independently from a population with mean μ and variance σ2 then which of the following is true...Which of the following point estimators is the most efficient?
