2. Consider an exponential random variable X with the following probability density function f(x) = 66-67 1 >0. Let 11, 12,..., be a random sample of size n. (a) Derive the expression of the maximum likelihood estimate of 6 and interpret the expression. You are not required to show that the estimate will produce the maximum value of the likelihood function. (3 marks) (b) Determine the expression of the asymptotic variance of the maximum likelihood estimate of o in part (a). (3 marks) (e) Derive the cumulative distribution function and hence the probability density function of random variable Y = VX (4 marks)
