Help please
I attested the picture did it not post?
I don't see the question. Try again.

Did it work this time :/
I don't understand why it's not posting
I see it.
Oh yay do you have any idea how to do it?
The picture is the question?
There I posted it again
Do you see the parts to it now? :)
Yes, but I want to study it also. Let's tag @Zarkon
Can you help me or not? 😂
@raffle_snapple can you help?

To me, for the first question, if point estimator is \(\bar Y\) , then \(E(\bar Y)= \mu\), then \(\bar Y\) is an unbiased point estimate of \(\mu\)
I'm super stuck on b I've done it two ways and I dunno which one is right any clue?
Show me your work, please.
That's one way be the other way I just got the answer 4.84 but for all I know both ways could be wrong
To me, for b) if we use \(\hat\sigma^2=\dfrac{1}{9}\sum_{i=1}^9 (Y_i-\bar Y)^2\), then we can get \(\hat\sigma^2\) is point estimate for \(\sigma^2\)
Do you use n or n-1 as the divisor?
Proof: \(\sum_{i=1}^9 (Y_i-\bar Y)^2 =\sigma^2X_8^2\) and we know that \(Var X_8^2=16\) and \(E(X_8^2)=8\) Hence \(E(\hat\sigma^2) = E((1/9)(\sigma^2 X_8^2)= \sigma^2/9 E(X_8^2)=8 \sigma^2/9\) and then \((B_\sigma^2 \hat\sigma^2) = (8\sigma^2/9-\sigma^2)^2=(-1/9) \sigma^2 <0\)
That shows \(\hat\sigma^2\) is unbiased for \(\sigma^2\)
Thanks I think I get it :) any clue on C ? 😂
Ok, on C, for a) we have \(\bar Y\) is estimator, right? Now, find \(P(a< \bar Y<b)=0.95\)
Sorry I meant d I actually did c
If you know how to do c, then the same for d. Assume that mu is known. just sigma is unknown
Okay never mind thanks
I need your explanation for this problem @Zarkon please
