Question:
Among six measurement of the boiling point of a silicon compound, the size of the error was 0.07,0.03,0.14,0.08 and 0.03 degree Celsius. Assuming that these data can be looked upon as a random sample from the population given by
f(x;[tex]\theta[/tex]) = 2([tex]\theta[/tex]-x)/[tex]\theta[/tex] for 0<x<[tex]\theta[/tex]
=0 elsewhere
find the estimator for [tex]\theta[/tex] by the method of moments.
