Why are unbiased estimators preferred over biased estimators?

Mathematics
1 answer:
DIA [1.3K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Generally an unbiased statistic is preferred over a biased statistic. This is because there is a long run tendency of the biased statistic to under/over estimate the true value of the population parameter. Unbiasedness does not guarantee that an estimator will be close to the population parameter.

Chen's pocket holds 10 coins: 3 quarters, 4 dimes, 1 nickle, and 2 pennies. What are the chances that he first randomly pulls ou
Aneli [31]
All the outcomes are 10 (possibilities)


To pull a quarter (total 3), its probability = 3/10 or 0.3

Now without putting the quarter back, the remaining total is now 9 (because one quarter was pulled out) so the probability of getting a penny is 2/9

But this is a conditional probability a) 1st pull a quarter & 2nd pull a penny

So the total probability is 3/10 x 2/9 =6/90 = 1/15 = 0.067

A band leader randomly selects 2 students out of 80 band members. If you and your brother are both band members, what is the pro
drek231 [11]
The first time the band leader selects one member, the probability that either you or your brother gets selected would be 2 out of 80 or in fraction 2/80. Now, once one of you gets chosen, for the next selection, there are only 79 members left and the probability that the remaining one (between you and your brother) gets selected after is 1/79. So, if you are both to be selected, the combined probability for that to happen will be (2/80)(1/79) = 1/3160. Therefore, the answer is 1/3160<span>.</span>
