Twenty motors were put on test under a high-temperature setting. The lifetimes in hours of the motors under these conditions are given below. Suppose we assume that the lifetime of a randomly selected motor under these conditions, X, has a Gamma (1, theta) distribution.
(a) Derive the maximum likelihood estimate of 9 and evaluate it numerically.
(b) Obtain the sample median of the data, which is an estimate of the median lifetime of a motor. What parameter is it estimating (i. e., determine the median of X)?
(c) Based on the mle, what is another estimate of the median of X?
(d) Obtain a large sample approximate 95% confidence interval for the mean lifetime of a motor.

The sum of the product of 4 and x and the product of 7 and y is 61. the sum of the product of 12 and x and the product of 21 and y is 61. what are the values of x and y?

() (98 points)to be fair, you have to have a very high iq to understant the jokes in rick and morty. the humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. there's also rick's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from narodnaya volya literature, for instance. the fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realise that they're not just funny- they say something deep about life. as a consequence people who dislike rick & morty truly are idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in rick's existential catchphrase "wubba lubba dub dub," which itself is a cryptic reference to turgenev's russian epic fathers and sons. i'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as dan harmon's genius wit unfolds itself on their television screens. what fools.. how i pity them. and yes, by the way, i do have a rick & morty tattoo. and no, you cannot see it. it's for the ladies' eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 iq points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. nothin personnel kid

(co 3) the times that customers spend in a book store are normally distributed with a mean of 39.5 minutes and a standard deviation of 9.4 minutes. a random sample of 25 customers has a mean of 36.1 minutes or less. would this outcome be considered unusual, so that the store should reconsider its displays? no, the probability of this outcome at 0.035, would be considered usual, so there is no problem yes, the probability of this outcome at 0.035, would be considered unusual, so the display should be redone no the probability of this outcome at 0.359 would be considered usual, so there is no problem yes, the probability of this outcome at 0.965 would be considered unusual, so the display should be redone
