The random variable X is distributed with pdf

fX(x, θ) = c*x*exp(-(x/θ)2), where x>0 and θ>0.

a) What is the constant c?

b) We consider parameter θ is a number. What is MLE and MOM of θ? Assume you have an i.i.d. sample. Is MOM unbiased?

c) Please calculate the Crameer-Rao Lower Bound (CRLB). Compare the variance of MOM with Crameer-Rao Lower Bound (CRLB).
