Suppose you have a sample from a population with a normal distribution with mean 0 and variance 1.

Suppose you have a sample from a population with a normal distribution with mean 0 and variance 1. What happens when you increase the mean and why? What happens when you increase the variance and why? What happens if you increase the sample size and why?

Maximum likelihood - Suppose you have a normal distribution with mean =0 and variance =1.

Suppose you have a normal distribution with mean =0 and variance =1. Suppose you conduct a likelihood test for mu =.07 and another likelihood test for mu =8. Now increase the variance of the distribution. How are the results affected?
