The density function of the Gamma distribution with parameters and k is given by where -1 e -x/0 (x) = = г(k) Øk if x > 0, and otherwise, г(k) = √ ₁ k-1-x dx x' e is the gamma function. (a) For every k ≥ 1, 0 > 0, find the mode of the density. Hint: The algebra can be simplified by appropriate use of logarithms. ~ Now suppose that X1,..., Xn id Exp(\) and that we have a prior belief in A which is consistent with a prior distribution X.
