STAT 211

The 2nd population moment of the distribution is E(X2)= ((2(1+(). The 2nd sample moment is . Then ((2(1+()= Since we have 2 unknown parameters and two equations, we can solve for the unknown parameters. The MME for ( and ( are and , respectively. Example 12: Find the MME for the parameters ( and (2 in normal distribution. ................
