Step 1
The expectation of a sum of random variables is equal to the sum of the expectations of the individual random variables. Therefore, we need to calculate the expectation of each term separately and then sum them up. The expectation of x_i*y_i is E(x_i*y_i) = Show more…

4.5. The exponential distribution has the probability function f(y; λ) = λ * exp(-αy), (4.37) for λ > 0 and y > 0. Consider estimating the mean λ for the exponential distribution based on a sample of n, Y1, Y2, ..., Yn. Determine the likelihood function and the log-likelihood function. Find the score function. Using the score function, find the maximum likelihood estimate (MLE) of λ. Find the observed and expected information for λ. Show that the standard error for λ is se(λ) = √(1/(nI(λ))). Show that the Wald test statistic for testing Ho: λ = 1 is W = (λ-1)^2/(1/(nI(λ))). Show that the score test statistic for testing Ho: λ = 1 is S = n(λ-1)^2/(I(λ)). Show that the likelihood ratio test statistic for testing Ho: λ = 1 is G = -2ln(L(1)/L(λ)). Plot W, S, and G for values of λ between 0.5 and 2 for n = 100. Comment on the results.

Given a standard Normal distribution, what is the value of k? [Hint: draw a sketch and mark in the mean and standard deviation. If k is a positive number and P(-k < Z < k) = 0.95, what is k? Remember that the Normal distribution is symmetric around the mean.] 1.9600 0.8289 1.645 0.8352 0.6578
