The standard deviation.
There are many, and it's easy to construct one.
The mean of a sample from a normal population is an unbiased estimator of the population mean. Let me call the sample mean xbar.
If the sample size is n then
n * xbar / ( n + 1 ) is a biased estimator of the mean with the property that its bias becomes smaller as the sample size rises.
What else can I help you with?
Show that in simple random sampling the sample variance is an unbiased estimator of population variance?
It is a biased estimator. S.R.S leads to a biased sample variance but i.i.d random sampling leads to a unbiased sample variance.
Why is the sample mean an unbiased estimator of the population mean?
The sample mean is an unbiased estimator of the population mean because the average of all the possible sample means of size n is equal to the population mean.
An estimator is consistent if as the sample size decreases the value of the estimator approaches the value of the parameter estimated F?
I believe you want to say, "as the sample size increases" I find this definition on Wikipedia that might help: In statistics, a consistent sequence of estimators is one which converges in probability to the true value of the parameter. Often, the sequence of estimators is indexed by sample size, and so the consistency is as sample size (n) tends to infinity. Often, the term consistent estimator is used, which refers to the whole sequence of estimators, resp. to a formula that is used to obtain a term of the sequence. So, I don't know what you mean by "the value of the parameter estimated F", as I think you mean the "true value of the parameter." A good term for what the estimator is attempting to estimate is the "estimand." You can think of this as a destination, and your estimator is your car. Now, if you all roads lead eventually to your destination, then you have a consistent estimator. But if it is possible that taking one route will make it impossible to get to your destination, no matter how long you drive, then you have an inconsistent estimator. See related links.
What is the type of sample in which each member of the sample set or group has an equal chance of being chosen.?
biased
What is the difference between a biased and unbiased sample?
Biased- (Not random) Unbiased-(Random) Example: (ubbiased) Woman takes random people to take a survey.
Is sample variance unbiased estimator of population variance?
No, it is biased.
Show that in simple random sampling the sample variance is an unbiased estimator of population variance?
It is a biased estimator. S.R.S leads to a biased sample variance but i.i.d random sampling leads to a unbiased sample variance.
What is the best estimator of population mean?
The best point estimator of the population mean would be the sample mean.
What is a biased sample?
A biased sample is a sample that is not random. A biased sample will skew the research because the sample does not represent the population.

What happens to the sampling error when the sample size is increased?
It is reduced.
What is the proof that the sample variance is an unbiased estimator?
The proof that the sample variance is an unbiased estimator involves showing that, on average, the sample variance accurately estimates the true variance of the population from which the sample was drawn. This is achieved by demonstrating that the expected value of the sample variance equals the population variance, making it an unbiased estimator.
Is a biased sample always valid?
a biased sample is valid determin
Differentiate estimate and estimator?
It can get a bit confusing! The estimate is the value obtained from a sample. The estimator, as used in statistics, is the method used. There's one more, the estimand, which is the population parameter. If we have an unbiased estimator, then after sampling many times, or with a large sample, we should have an estimate which is close to the estimand. I will give you an example. I have a sample of 5 numbers and I take the average. The estimator is taking the average of the sample. It is the estimator of the mean of the population. The average = 4 (for example), this is my estmate.
What is the definition of biased sample for math?
A biased sample is a Statistical Sample in which the sample is biased or have more samples of the things that is being influenced.
Effect on the width of the confidence interval when sample size is increased?
In general, the confidence interval (CI) is reduced as the sample size is increased. See related link.
Why is the sample mean an unbiased estimator of the population mean?
The sample mean is an unbiased estimator of the population mean because the average of all the possible sample means of size n is equal to the population mean.
