Suppose the distribution of X given θ\theta is normal with mean θ\theta and variance 15. Further, let the prior (improper) distribution of θ\theta be proportional to 1,−∞<θ<∞1, -\infty < \theta < \infty. If the observed value of X is 13, then which of the following statements is true?

Suppose we want to estimate the population mean Ȳ of a variable for a finite population of size 85, with 34 Statisticians and 51 Biologists. We consider the following sampling scheme: a stratified random sample with 2 strata of Statisticians (Stratum-1) and Biologists (Stratum-2), where 12 Statisticians and 15 Biologists are drawn from Stratum-1 and Stratum-2, respectively, using SRSWOR scheme. Denote ȳ_S, ȳ_B, and ȳ as the mean of the variable among the Statistician sample, Biologist sample, and the combined sample, respectively. Which of the following is an unbiased estimator of Ȳ?

Let X, Y, and Z be independent Normal random variables with means −1, 0, and 1, respectively, and variances 1, 1, and 3, respectively. Which of the following random variables has a Cauchy distribution with location parameter 0 and scale parameter 1?

Consider an M/M/3 queuing system with arrival rate λ=2\lambda = 2 and service rate μ=3/2\mu = 3/2. Define, for i=1,2,…,Ii=1i = 1, 2, \dots, I_{i} = 1 if the first transition is from i to i + 1, and Ii=0I_{i} = 0 if the first transition from i is i − 1. Then, Var(I4)Var(I_{4}) equals
