a. Explanation It is known that the distribution function for each variable is shown below: F Y ( 1 ) ( x ) = { 0 , x ≤ 0 x θ , x ∈ ( 0 , θ ) 1 , x ≥ θ The distribution function for Y ( n ) is computed as follows: F Y ( n ) ( x ) = P ( Y ( n ) ≤ x ) = P ( max { Y 1 , Y 2 , … , Y n } ≤ x ) = P ( Y 1 ≤ x ) ⋅ P ( Y 2 ≤ x ) ⋅ … ⋅ P ( Y n ≤ x ) = ( F Y ( 1 ) ( x ) ) n , x ∈ R The distribution function for U is computed as follows: F U ( u ) = P ( U ≤ u ) = P ( 1 θ < b. To determine Obtain the 95% lower confidence bound for θ .
