R1. It is easy to show the MME for a Poisson distribution is λ = X. Our goal in this problem is to realize that λ is itself a RV. This is because different samples will give rise to different values for X, and hence λ. If something is a RV, it should have a distribution showing the different possible values and how likely they are. This is known as a "sampling distribution if you are modeling a statistic or...

3. You are given that if X follows an Exponential(λ) distribution then its cdf is given by F(x) = 1 − exp(−λx) for x ≥ 0. Let independent random variables Xi ∼ Exponential(λi) for i = 1, . . . , n and define Mn = min1≤i≤n Xi . Find the cdf of Mn.

Recall that X ∼ Exp(λ) if the probability density function of X
is fX(x) = λe−λx for x ≥ 0. Let X1, . . . , Xn ∼ Exp(λ), where λ is
an unknown parameter. Exponential random variables are often used
to model the time between rare events, in which case λ is
interpreted as the average number of events occurring per unit of
time.

5. Let X ∼ Exp(λ) with λ unknown, and suppose X1, X2 is a random sample of size 2. Show that M = sqrt( X1 · X2 ) is a biased estimator of 1/λ and modify it to create an unbiased estimator. (Hint: During your journey, you’ll need the help of the gamma distribution, the gamma function, and the knowledge that Γ(1/2) = √ π.)
