Problem 4: Consider the problem of estimating the unknown parameter p of a Bernoulli random variable that describes the probability that a coin toss results in a head. Denote by X the outcome of the jth toss of the coin and let j-1 denote the sample mean. Part I: Use Chebyshev inequality to determine the number of tosses n needed so that P( -pl> 0.01) 0.01 The estimate should be independent of p Part II: Compute ElIX -pl]. Your answer...
