Solution:-

Given that

x and y are exponential random variable each having parameter .

density function of X,

joint density of x, y

, x> 0, y > 0

(x and y are independent)

By the method of transforms on

f(u, v) is the joint density of u and v

(a)

Enter the function g(u, v) into the answer box below

(a)

(b)

Enter the function h(v) into the answer box below.

So the function h(v) is given that

(c)

Enter the value of a into the answer box below.

value of "a" into the answer box below

a = 1

For a random sample of sizenfrom an Exponential distribution with rate parameter λ (so that the density is fY(y) =λe−λy), derive the maximum likelihood estimator, the methods of moments estimator, and the Bayes estimator (that is, the posterior mean) using a prior proportional to λe−λ, for λ >0. (Hint: the posterior distribution will be a Gamma.)
