What is the expected value of X?
(All answers should be rounded to one more decimal place than the
raw data.) (Remember to perform all calculations before rounding to
avoid a rounding error.)
The mean here is computed as:


The second moment now is computed here as:



Now the variance here is computed as:

The standard deviation is now obtained as:

Note that the expected value is equal to the mean which is 9.85 here.

x, and S1 are the sample mean and sample variance from a population with mean μ| and variance ơf. Similarly, X2 and S1 are the sample mean and sample variance from a second population with mean μ and variance σ2. Assume that these two populations are independent, and the sample sizes from each population are n,and n2, respectively. (a) Show that X1-X2 is an unbiased estimator of μ1-μ2.
