Consider an extension of the situation discussed in Example 3.10. If there are n trials

Chapter 3, Problem 3.64

(choose chapter or problem)

Consider an extension of the situation discussed in Example 3.10. If there are n trials in a binomial experiment and we observe y0 successes, show that P(Y = y0) is maximized when p = y0/n. Again, we are determining (in general this time) the value of p that maximizes the probability of the value of Y that we actually observed.
