a) Write down the log likelihood function for the sample and show that the MLE is the sample mean. b) Derive the score and the Hessian (it's a scalar here since there is only one parameter). Derive the information “matrix," which is scalar here. c) Derive the formulas for the Wald and LM tests of the hypothesis that 0= 0o (against the alternative that it's anything else). Verify that under the null the two test statistics have the same probability limit.

A researcher wanted to examine the effectiveness of Vitamin C on the number of colds a year. The researcher obtained a sample of adults and asked to take Vitamin C daily. The average number of colds a year among adults is known to have the average of μ = 3On the basis of this sample, can the researcher conclude that Vitamin C has an effect on the number of colds a year? Use alpha =.05 two-tailed test. Colds: 2,2,2,1,3,3,1,2 Conducta two-tailed test with alpha = .05. Q1: State your null and research hypotheses using complete sentences Q2: What is the df? Q3: What are the cut-off points Q4: What is the standard deviation? You can just include the answer for the mean, SS, and the standard deviation. No need to type your computation. Q5: What is the estimated standard error? Show your computation. Q6: What is the t-value? Show your computation. Q7: State your conclusion thoroughly.
do for b, c, and d also remember to find he 99% confidence interval too
Executives of a supermarket chain are interested in the amount of time that customers spend in the stores during shopping trips. The executives hire a statistical consultant and ask her to determine the mean shopping time, µ, of customers at the supermarkets. The consultant will collect a random sample of shopping times at the supermarkets and use the mean of these shopping times to estimate u. Assuming that the standard deviation of the population of shopping times at the supermarkets is 29 minutes, what is the minimum sample size she must collect in order for her to be 90% confident that her estimate is within 6 minutes of u? Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places. Write your answer as a whole number (and make sure that it is the minimum whole number that satisfies the requirements). (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.)
Suppose that average male weight in the US is 175 pounds with a standarddeviation of 25 pounds. Suppose you randomly select 1,000 male Americans and ask their weight, and average the 1,000 numbers to compute a sample mean Xn. A. What is the variance of the sample mean Xn? B. Use your answer to part (A), and Chebyshev’s inequality, to come up with a quantitative upper bound for the probability that sample mean Xn is more than a certain distance of 175
Suppose that a random man's weight from a certain population is M~ Normal (μ = 200, o²49) and a random woman's weight is W ~ Normal( 140, o² = 25). If M and W are independent, what is the variance of the difference between a man's weight and a woman's weight, i.e. Var (M-W)? (a) 340 (b) 24 (c) 140 (d) 200 (e) None of the above

A pharmaceutical company has developed a drug that is expected to reduce hunger. To test the drug, three samples of rats are selected with n=10n=10 in each sample. The first sample receives the drug every day. The second sample is given the drug once a week, and the third sample receives no drug at all (the control group). The dependent variables is the amount of food eaten by each rat over a 1-month period. These data are analyzed by an ANOVA, and the results are reported in the following summary table. Fill in all missing values in the table. (Hint: Start with the df column.) S.S. d.f. M.S. F Between 6.68 Within 4.35 TOTAL Use the =FDIST() function in Excel to locate the p-value for this ANOVA:p-value = Report p-value accurate to at least 6 decimal places.If you use a significance level of α=.05α=.05, what would you conclude about these treatments?
A researcher investigates whether cold medication effects mental alertness. It is known that scores on a standardized test containing a variety of problem-solving tasks are normally distributed with  = 64 and  = 8. A random sample of n = 16 teenage and a sample of n = 25 adults are given the drug and then tested. On average, the teenagers scored and average of ? = 58 and the adults scored and average of M = 65.5.a. Are the data sufficient to conclude that the medication significantly reduces mental alertness in teenagers? Test with  = .01.b. Are the data sufficient to conclude that the medication significantly increases mental alertness in adults? Test with  = .01.
