The lifespan of a system component follows a Gamma distribution with β (unknown) and α=1. (hint: start with confidence interval for μ)
f(x)=(1/βα Γ(α)) Xα-1 e-X/β
a. Derive 98% large sample confidence interval for β.
b. Find maximum likelihood estimator of β.
a) 98% large sample confidence interval fo β is
b) MLE for β is
