Problem 1: confidence interval for a variance parameter for a normal distribution Let Ybe a normal random variable with mean μand variance σ2. Assume that μis known but σ2is unknown. Show that ((Y-μ)/σ)2is a pivotal quantity. Use this pivotal quantity to derive a 1-α confidence interval for σ2. (The answer should be left in terms of critical values for the appropriate distribution.)
