If X1 is the mean of a random sample of size n from a normal population with the mean u and the variance o, X2 is the mean of a random sample of size n from a normal population with the mean µ and the variance o,, and the the estimator w.X1 + (1 w). X2 is the unbiased - estimator. Is this estimator consistent?
