Question:
Let X1, . . . , Xn be a random sample from a N(μ, σ2) population. Find the MLEs of μ and of σ. The likelihood function is a function of two parameters, μ and σ. Compute partial derivatives with respect to μ and σ and set them equal to 0 to find the values μ̂ and σ̂ that maximize the likelihood function.
