The success of the procedure depeds o various biomechaical properties of the huma asal periosteum ad fascia. The article Biomechaics i Augmetatio Rhioplasty J. of Med. Egr. ad Tech. 005: 4-7 reported that for a sample of 5 ewly deceased adults the mea failure strai % was 5.0 ad the stadard deviatio was 3.5. Assume that the distributio of failure strai is ormal with mea µ. a Fid a 98% cofidece iterval for the parameter µ. b If we kow that the stadard deviatio σ of the distributio of failure strai is 3.5 based o previous kowledge for example what is a 98% cofidece iterval for the parameter µ ow? a The 98% cofidece iterval for µ whe σ is ukow is give by s s x t 0.99 x + t Here /. Sice 5 we have t Therefore the cofidece iterval is b The 98% cofidece iterval for µ whe σ is kow is give by σ s x z 0.99 x + z Here /. Sice z the cofidece iterval is

No : i ksi i give i icreasig order]: The sample mea ad stadard deviatio are x ad s 3.55 respectively. Assume the fracture toughess is ormally distributed. Calculate a 99% CI for the stadard deviatio of the fracture toughess distributio. Let σ be the variace of the fracture toughess distributio. The the 99% cofidece iterval for σ is give by s s χ χ / ad /. Sice we have χ ad χ Therefore the cofidece iterval is

If X.5 ad 60 fid a approximate cofidece iterval for the parameter p with cofidece level 98%. The mle for p ad the asymptotic variace for the mle are foud i previous homework. The mle for p is ˆp X where X X i ad the asymptotic variace of ˆp is Ip pp. Thus a 98% approximate cofidece iterval for p is give by ˆpˆp ˆpˆp ˆp z 0.99 ˆp + z 0.99 X z X X 0.99 X + z X X

The mle for σ is ˆσ X i ˆσ 9 for the give sample ad the asymptotic variace of ˆp is Iσ σ. Thus a 90% approximate cofidece iterval for σ is give by ˆσ ˆσ ˆσ z 0.95 ˆσ + z

X is a i.i.d. sample. If log X i 0 ad 00 fid a 96% approximate cofidece iterval for θ. The mle for θ is ˆθ ˆθ 0. for the give sample ad x 0 log X i log x 0 ad the asymptotic variace of ˆp is Iθ θ. Thus a 96% approximate cofidece iterval for θ is give by ˆθ ˆθ z0.98 ˆθ ˆθ + z

The pdf of X is Thus fx p p x p x x 0. likp fx... X p lp log likp l p X p l p X p p Xi p Xi ; [X i log p + X i log p] X i log p + X i log p X log p + X log p X p ; X p < 0. Sice l X 0 the mle for p is ˆp X. b. Let X Berp. Sice log fx p X log p + X log p; p log fx p X p X p ; p log fx p X p X p. Thus the Fisher iformatio for p is [ ] Ip E log fx p p [ E X p X ] p E[X] p p p + p p p p 6 + E[X] p
7 ad the Cramér-Rao lower boud is Ip p p p p. Sice Var[ˆp] Var [ X ] Var[X ] p p p p we see that the mle of part a attais the Cramér-Rao lower boud.. [ 8-68] Let X... X be a i.i.d. sample from a Poisso distributio with mea λ ad let T X i. a. Show that the distributio of X... X give T is idepedet of λ ad coclude that T is sufficiet for λ. b. Show that X is ot sufficiet. 7
8 a. The pmf for Poiλ is λ λx fx λ e x 0... x! Sice the sum of idepedet Poisso radom variables is a Poisso radom variable see Example E 4.5 we have T Poiλ. Thus for t x i we have fx... x T t PX x...
