Q3. (Estimation and inference for the population mean of a normal distri- bution) 10 points Suppose that X is normally distributed, and that you are given the following random sample from its distribution: 5, 8, 7, 9, 3, 5, 10, 8, 7, 9, 6, 10, and 5 a. Estimate the mean and variance of the underlying normal distribution. 3 points b. Test the null hypothesis that the true population mean is equal to three (against the one-sided alternative that it...
7. Consider a random sample X1,..., Xn from a population with a Bernoulli(@) distri- bution. (a) Suppose n > 3, show that the product W = X X X3 is an unbiased estimator of p. (b) Show that T = 2h-1X; is a sufficient statistic for 0 (c) Using your answers to parts (a) and (b), use the Rao-Blackwell Theorem to find a better unbiased estimator of 03.

1. Suppose that {X1, ... , Xn} is a random sample from a normal distribution with mean p and and variance o2. Let sa be the sample variance. We showed in lectures that S2 is an unbiased estimator of o2. (a) Show that S is not an unbiased estimator of o. (b) Find the constant k such that kS is an unbiased estimator of o. Hint. Use a result from Student's Theorem that (n − 1)52 ~ x?(n − 1)...

Example 3.6. Take a random sample of size n from an exponential distri- bution with rate parameter XA. 1. Derive an exact 95% confidence interval for X. 2. Suppose your sample is of size 9 and has sample mean 3.93. (a) What is your 95% confidence interval for λ? (b) What is your 95% confidence interval for the population mean? 3. Repeat the above using the CLT approximation (rather than an eract interval
