7. Let X₁, X2, ..., Xn be a random sample from normal distribution with mean and standard deviation o. (a) Find the maximum likelihood estimators of μ and o² (b) Show that, the estimator of μ is unbiased but the estimator of o2 is biased (c) Compute the bias of the estimator of o2 and comment on it. Hence, write a function of this estimator that is unbiased, find its variance and show that, it is consistent.
