Chapter 10.10, Problem 104E
Refer to the random sample of Exercise 10.103.
a Find the most powerful α-level test for testing H0 : θ = θ0 against Ha : θ = θa, where θa > θ0.
b Is the test in part (a) uniformly most powerful for testing H0 : θ = θ0 against Ha :θ > θ0?
c Is the most powerful α-level test that you found in part (a) unique?
10.103 Let Y1, Y2, …, Yn denote a random sample from a uniform distribution over the interval (0, θ).
