Hi, The answer here says that since E(x) = 0.5, we can't use the first moments. Could someone please explain why? Thanks, Tom
Also, if someone could please explain how we get 1/4(2a + 1) + 1/4 from subbing the two alpha parameters into the eq. Thanks
E(x)= 1/2 is constant here, since it doesn't involve alpha, we can't solve the value of alpha by equating it with sample mean.
