5.2.14. For the negative binomial pdf p (k; p, r) = k+r−1 (1 − p)kpr, find the maximum likelihood k estimator for p if r is know

Volgvan

Answer:

$\hat p = \frac{r}{\bar x +r}$

Step-by-step explanation:

A negative binomial random variable "is the number X of repeated trials to produce r successes in a negative binomial experiment. The probability distribution of a negative binomial random variable is called a negative binomial distribution, this distribution is known as the Pascal distribution".

And the probability mass function is given by:

$P(X=x) = (x+r-1 C k)p^r (1-p)^{x}$

Where r represent the number successes after the k failures and p is the probability of a success on any given trial.

Solution to the problem

For this case the likehoof function is given by:

$L(\theta , x_i) = \prod_{i=1}^n f(\theta ,x_i)$

If we replace the mass function we got:

$L(p, x_i) = \prod_{i=1}^n (x_i +r-1 C k) p^r (1-p)^{x_i}$

When we take the derivate of the likehood function we got:

$l(p,x_i) = \sum_{i=1}^n [log (x_i +r-1 C k) + r log(p) + x_i log(1-p)]$

And in order to estimate the likehood estimator for p we need to take the derivate from the last expression and we got:

$\frac{dl(p,x_i)}{dp} = \sum_{i=1}^n \frac{r}{p} -\frac{x_i}{1-p}$

And we can separete the sum and we got:

$\frac{dl(p,x_i)}{dp} = \sum_{i=1}^n \frac{r}{p} -\sum_{i=1}^n \frac{x_i}{1-p}$

Now we need to find the critical point setting equal to zero this derivate and we got:

$\frac{dl(p,x_i)}{dp} = \sum_{i=1}^n \frac{r}{p} -\sum_{i=1}^n \frac{x_i}{1-p}=0$

$\sum_{i=1}^n \frac{r}{p} =\sum_{i=1}^n \frac{x_i}{1-p}$

For the left and right part of the expression we just have this using the properties for a sum and taking in count that p is a fixed value:

$\frac{nr}{p}= \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n x_i}{1-p}$

Now we need to solve the value of $\hat p$ from the last equation like this:

$nr(1-p) = p \sum_{i=1}^n x_i$

$nr -nrp =p \sum_{i=1}^n x_i$

$p \sum_{i=1}^n x_i +nrp = nr$

$p[\sum_{i=1}^n x_i +nr]= nr$

And if we solve for $\hat p$ we got:

$\hat p = \frac{nr}{\sum_{i=1}^n x_i +nr}$

And if we divide numerator and denominator by n we got:

$\hat p = \frac{r}{\bar x +r}$

Since $\bar x = \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n x_i}{n}$

A company developed the following linear model to help budget annual expenses over time. In this model, x represents the number

ollegr [7]

The only reasonable answer I could think for this is "A.<span>The company's expense budget for 2009 was $189,785."
I believe this because since x is the years after 2009 then you wouldn't times that by the expense budget for that year or any year eliminating B and C. When finding the total expense budget for this you would have to take in account the budget from 2009 so that would lead it to add 189,758. Since we are talking about after 2009 then D would be eliminated since 2008 is before 2009.
I hope this helps! Good luck!</span><span>

The short sides of a rectangle are 2 inches. The long sides of the same rectangle are three less than a certain number of inches

Georgia [21]

So the “certain number” will be S.
Since 2width + 2length, the first part would be 2 times 2 which is 4
The length is S - 3
We then have to multiply this by 2
So it is 2(S-3) which is 2S-6
So the answer is 4+2S-6 which is 2S-2

Rewrite 9 over 6 as a equivalent fraction and percent

vovangra [49]

Answer:3/2 and 150%

Step-by-step explanation:

9/6 divided by 3 on both top and bottom and get 3/2

9÷ 6= 1.5 so convert it into a percent! (move the decimal 2 places to the Right) 150%
