Let X₁,..., Xn be a random sample from a distribution with one of two pdfs. If 0 = 1, thenf(x;0=1) = 1 (0 < x < 1). If 0 = 2, then f(x;0= 2) = 2x1 (0 < x < 1).(a) Give a general form of the MLE of 0.(b) You are given a sample data of 3 values: 0.4, 0.5, 0.8. Find the MLE estimate of 0 basedon the data.
