5. (4pt) Continuous random variable x is distributed according to 1 f(x) = r(a)ßa where x > 0. Assume that parameter a is known. -x-1 e -x/B a) (2) Determine parameter ß using maximum likelihood method. b) (2) Use the second derivative of likelihood function to show that your solution indeed corresponds to maximum likelihood.
