Problem 6.1 (Video 4.1 - 4.7, Lecture Problem) Let X be Uniform[1, 2]. Let Y givenX = x be Exponential(x); that is, fy|x(y|x) = xexy, y ≥ 0 and 0, y < 0.(a) Find the expected value of Y. (Hint: see HW 5, problem 5.4e). (It is OK to leave youranswer as an integral.)(b) Find the conditional expected value E[Y|X = x] of Y given X = x. (This should be inclosed form.)(c) Using E[Y] = E[E[Y|X]] find the expected value of Y. (This should be in closed form.)(d) Solve for E[XY].

1. Suppose we have a random sample X₁, X2, ..., Xn from an Exponential distribution with mean 1/A. Suppose we want to estimate the mean 1/A. One estimator for 1/X is T₁ = X. Of interest is to note that the minimum of X₁, X2,..., Xn, say X(1), has an Exponential distribution with mean (n)-¹. (a) Show that T₁ is an unbiased estimator of 1/A. (b) Find the constant a such that T₂ = aX(1) is an unbiased estimator of 1/X. (c) Since T₁ and T₂ are both unbiased we prefer the estimator with smaller variance. Which of the estimators T₁ and T₂ would you choose for estimating the mean 1/X?
