Can anyone explain blue writing? Thank you!!
Query 1: No Moment generating function is not the only way of getting the density of the linear combination. Jacobian method can also be used for the same.
Query 2:Yes this is a formula and it would be helpful if you could remembe it, But anyway you can readily derieve this if required.
Query 3:

Let yı, y2,-. ., yn be a sample drawn from a normal population with unknown mean μ an model d unknown variance σ2. One way to estimate μ is to fit the linear (2.61) and use the least squares (LS), that is, to minimize the sum of squares, Σ (Vi-A)2. Another way is to use the least absolute value (L AV), that is, to minimize the sum of absolute value of the vertical distances, Σ bi-μ| (a) Show that the...
Let Y1, Y2, , Yn be independent, normal random variables, each
with mean μ and variance σ^2.
(a) Find the density function of

(b) If σ^2 = 25 and n = 9, what is the
probability that the sample mean, Y, takes on a value that is
within one unit of the population mean, μ?
That is, find P(|Y − μ| ≤ 1). (Round your answer to four decimal
places.)

Let Y1 N(1,1), Y2 N(2,2), and Y3 N(3,3) be independent random variables. Find a new random variable Y4 that is a function of Y1, Y2, and Y3 such that Y4 has a t-distribution with 2 degrees of freedom, and explain why it has that distribution. (To avoid confusion, the parameters in the normal distributions above are the mean and the standard deviation.)
Let the independent normal random variables Y1,Y2, . . . ,Yn have the respective distributions N(μ, γ 2x2i ), i = 1, 2, . . . , n, where x1, x2, . . . , xn are known but not all the same and no one of which is equal to zero. Find the maximum likelihood estimators for μ and γ 2.
