( ) (9) If you have a random sample of size n from a Normal(6,6 density, write down two different unbiased estimators of«', both of which utilize the entire sample. Then compute the relative...
don't answer this question, It was a manipulation error. That is the correct question I want answer for (5) For a random sample of size n from a Uniform (0, 5+ ple of size n from a Uniform ( θ, 5+8) population, write estimators of o (both of which f which use the entire sample). Call them 0 and o Compute the relative efficiency of with respect estimator is obvious. For the other one, ry relating this denst ] [5)...

Suppose you have a random sample {X1, X2, X3} of size n = 3. Consider the following three possible estimators for the population mean u and variance o2 Дi 3D (X1+ X2+ X3)/3 Ti2X1/4 X2/2 X3/4 Дз — (Х+ X,+ X3)/4 (a) What is the bias associated with each estimator? (b) What is the variance associated with each estimator? (c) Does the fact that Var(i3) < Var(1) contradict the statement that X is the minimum variance unbiased estimator? Why or...
3. You have two independent random samples: XiXX from a population with mean In and variance σ2 and Y, Y2, , , , , Y,n from a population with mean μ2 and variance σ2. Note that the two populations share a common variance. The two sample variances are Si for the first sample and Si for the second. We know that each of these is an unbiased estimator of the common population variance σ2, we also know that both of...
Suppose X1, X2, . . . , Xn are a random sample from a Uniform(0, θ) distribution, where θ > 0. Consider two different estimators of θ: R1 = 2X¯ R2 =(n + 1)/n max(X1, . . . , Xn) (a) For each of the estimators R1 and R2, assess whether it is an unbiased estimator of θ. (b) Compute the variances of R1 and R2. Under what conditions will R2 have a smaller variance than R1?

15. Multiple Choice Question Consider two independent normal populations. A random sample of size n = 16 is selected from the first normal population with mean 75 and variance 288. A second random sample of size m - 9 is selected from the second normal population with mean 80 and variance 162. Assume that the random samples are independent. Let X, and X, be the respective sample means. Find the probability that X1 + X, is larger than 156.5. A....
