Tossup

This quantity is minimized for an unbiased estimator that is a function of a complete and sufficient statistic by the Lehmann–Scheffé (“LAY-man shef-FAY”) theorem. Ronald Fisher developed a test that generalizes the t-test to more than two groups named (-5[1])for the “analysis of” this quantity. (10[2])For (-5[1])two random variables X and Y, the expected value of X times Y minus the product of the expected values of X and Y gives this quantity’s “co-” form. This quantity (10[1])is the second central moment (10[1])of a distribution, (10[1])and is equal to the mean for a Poisson (“pwa-SAWN”) distribution. For a random variable X, this quantity is the [read slowly] expected value of X squared, minus the square of the expected value of X. For 10 points, the square of the standard deviation is equal to what (10[1])measure of spread? ■END■ (10[2])
