Find the maximum likelihood estimate of the parameter θ, for a Uniform [0,θ] distribution.
A normal distribution has m = 80 and s = 10. What is the probability of randomly selecting a score greater than 75 from this distribution?
Using z-scores, a population with m = 37 and s = 6 is standardized so that the new mean is m = 50 and s = 10. How does an individual's z-score in the new distribution compare with his/her z-score in
