We have a one parameter statistical model.

Probability model: {f(x;θ)=x/(2θ^2), θ>0 and x is an element of (0, θ].

Sampling model: X=(X₁,...X_n) is random.

By stating likelihood and log likelihood functions, calculate the maximum likelihood estimator of θ. Differentiation can't be used to solve this problem.
