Between 1951 and 2000, there were 295 hurricanes in the Atlantic Ocean. Assume that the numbers of hurricanes in different years can be accurately modeled as i.i.d. random variables having a Poisson distribution with mean λ. Find a 90 percent confidence interval for λ.

9. Let X1, . . . , Xn be a random sample from the pdf fX(x; θ) = (θ + 1)x θ for 0 < x < 1, and fX(x; θ) = 0 otherwise, where θ > −1. Recall that in Problem 8 of Homework 2, you found that the MLE for θ is given by
