Suppose that \({X_1},....,{X_{10}}\)form a random sample from a normal distribution for which both the mean and the variance are unknown. Construct a statistic that does not depend on any unknown parameters and has the \(F\)distribution with three and five degrees of freedom.
2. Suppose that a random variable X has the F distribution with three and eight degrees of freedom. Determine the value of c such that Pr(X>c) = 0.975
1. Consider again the situation described in Exercise 11 of Sec. 9.6. Test the null hypothesis that the variance of the fusion time for subjects who saw a picture of the object is no smaller than the variance for subjects who did see a picture. The alternative hypothesis is that the variance for subjects who saw a picture is smaller than the variance for subjects who did not see a picture. Use a level of significance of 0.05.
Consider the situation described immediately before Eq. (9.1.12). Prove that the expression (9.1.12) equals the smallestα0such that we would reject H0 at level of significanceα0.
Suppose that \({X_1},.....,{X_n}\)form a random sample from the \({\chi ^2}\) distribution with unknown degrees of freedom\(\theta \)\((\theta = 1,2,...)\), and it is desired to test the following hypotheses at a given level of significance\({\alpha _0}\left( {0 < {\alpha _0} < 1} \right)\):
\(\begin{array}{l}{H_0}:\;\;\;\theta \le 8,\\{H_1}:\;\;\;\theta \ge 9.\end{array}\)
Show that there exists a UMP test, and the test specifies rejecting \({H_0}\)if \(\sum\limits_{i = 1}^n {log} {X_i} \ge k\) for some appropriate constant\(k\).
