Question:
4 Suppose that in n “at bats,” a baseball player gets x hits.
Suppose we want to estimate the player’s probability (p) of getting a hit on each “at bat.” The method of maximum likelihood estimates p by ˆp, where ˆp maximizes the probability of observing x hits in n “at bats.” Show that the method of maximum likelihood would choose ˆp =x/n
