Q5.LetX1,X2,···Xn be an independent random sample from a
distribution with finite mean µ and finite variance σ2. An estimator
of µ in the form L = c1X1 + c2X2 +···cnXn 2 is called a linear
estimator,where c1,c2,··· ,cn are some known constants.If L is
unbiased,then it is called a linear unbiased estimator.A linear
unbiased estimator that has the minimum variance among all linear
unbiased estimators is called the best linear unbiased estimator
(BLUE). (i) Express E(L) and Var(L) in terms...
