The city records the number of car accidents at each of n intersections over the course of the year. Let's assume that the number of accidents for a particular intersection i is denoted by X₁. We are provided with a simple random sample of accidents at n intersections, X₁,..., Xn. Let's assume the following model, i.i.d. Xi Pois (X) where A is an unknown parameter of interest (i.e., the unknown population accident rate). (a) the sufficient statistic? Show that the MLE of λ is X. Find its sufficient statistic. Is the MLE a function of Find the bias, variance, and MSE of ÂMLE. Does the MLE achieve the Cramér-Rao's lower bound? (b) (c) (d) Find the asymptotic distribution of the MLE for A.

- Types of Random Sampling Give the appropriate type of random sampling for each item. Justify your answers. A researcher from SWS survey picked the cities of Las Piñas, Pateros, Pasig, and San Juan, out of 17 cities of NCR, to be the part of a nationwide survey. The whole populace of the said cities will be interviewed to determine the government response satisfaction rate for COVID-19 crisis. A survey is being conducted to determine if the students are satisfied to the foods that are being served in their school canteen. School administrators picked 20% of the respondents from Grade 7, 30% from Grade 8, 35% from Grade 9, and 15% from Grade 10. A researcher chose the subjects of their study by selecting every 11th member of the population.arrow_forwardA consumer products testing group is evaluating two competing brands of tires, Brand 1 and Brand 2. Tread wear can vary considerably depending on the type of car, and the group is trying to eliminate this effect by installing the two brands on the same random sample of 12 cars.

- A consumer products testing group is evaluating two competing brands of tires, Brand 1 and Brand 2.

Based on these data, can the consumer group conclude, at the 0.01 level of significance, that the mean tread wears of the brands differ?
