The independent random variables X₁,..., X_n have the common distribution

a. In Exercise 7.10 the MLEs of α and β were found. If α is a known constant, α_o, find an upper confidence limit for β with confidence coefficient .95.

b. Use the data of Exercise 7.10 to construct an interval estimate for β. Assume that α is known and equal to its MLE.
