List two unbiased estimators and their corresponding parameters. (Select all that apply.)
p is an unbiased estimator for p
is an unbiased estimator for x
x is an unbiased estimator for
x is an unbiased estimator for
p is an unbiased estimator for p
is an unbiased estimator for x
Solution
x-bar is an unbiased estimator for
p is an unbiased estimator for p
Rest are wrong. Remember that only a sample statistic can be estimator of population parameter, not the other way around. represents population std dev (parameter) and p represents population proportion (parameter), is population mean . p-hat and x-bar are sample proportion and sample mean.
