Suppose you have a sample of n independent observations X1,X2,...,Xn from a normal population with mean μ (known) and variance σ2 (unknown). (a) Find the ML estimator of σ2 . (b) Show that the ML estimator in (a) is a consistent estimator of θ. (c) Find a sufficient statistic for σ2. (d) Give a MVUE for θ based on the sufficient statistic.

3. Suppose we have the following values for a different random variable X: 269.417 284.218 229.319 236.559 229.787 237.651 248.699 224.536 2 Use Excel to fill in the values of descriptive statistics below (attach a copy of your Excel spreadsheet printout). Mean: Sample Variance: Median: Skewness: 4. Use Excel to check your answer on correlation for question 2 part b. Attach a copy of your Exce spreadsheet printout.
3. Suppose we observe 5 values from an unknown distribution: (1,7,5, 16,4). (a) Find the sample mean (which is often used as an estimator of the population mean) (b) Find the sample variance (which is often used as an estimator of the population variance). (c) In general, the estimators above are both unbiased and consistent for the population mean and variance, respectively Bias and consistency are both measures of the central tendency of an estimators. One is more relevant in...
Consider a sample with data values 53, 55, 70, 58, and 64. Use Excel to compute the following quantities. (a) Compute the mean. (b) Compute the median. (c) Compute the range. (d) Compute the variance. (e) Compute the standard deviation. (f) Compute the z-score for each of the five observations
Suppose the value of Young's modulus (GPa) was determined for cast plates consisting of certain intermetallic substrates, resulting in the following sample observations: 116.4 115.7 114.7 115.1 115.5 (a) Calculate x. GPa Calculate the deviations from the mean. (Enter your answers to two decimal places.) x 116.4 115.7 114.7 115.1 115.5 deviation (b) Use the deviations calculated in part (a) to obtain the sample variance and the sample standard deviation. (Round your answers to three decimal places.) s2 = GPa2...

The minimum injection pressure (psi) for injection molding specimens of high amylose corn was determined for eight different specimens (higher pressure corresponds to greater processing difficulty), resulting in the following observations 14.5 12.6 17.8 14,4 12.0 10.5 9.3 8.3 (a) Determine the values of the sample mean X, sample median, and 12.5% trimmed mean Xtr. (Round your answers to two decimal places.) x Compare these values. The mean is much larger than the median and trimmed mean, indicating positive skewness....

Use the data set here (Links to an external site.) for this question. The data set contains a sample showing the number of times a website was visited/viewed in one day; each observation corresponds to one day. a) The point estimate for the mean number of website views is [ Select ] . b) The sample standard deviation is [ Select ] . c) Suppose that the sample mean equals the true mean. Suppose that website views follow a Poisson...
