(b) Determine the bias of the estimator ????2.

(c) Is either of the estimators ????1 and ????2 an unbiased estimator of ????? Why?

(d) Compute the value of the mean squared error for the estimator ????1 when ???? = 10.

(e) Compute the value of the mean squared error for the estimator ????2 when ???? = 10.

(f) Which of the estimators ????1 and ????2 is a more accurate estimator of ???? when ???? = 10? Explain.
