Please help me thank you so much

Consider the linear model for a two-stage nested design with b nested in a as given below. yijk=\small \mu + \small \taui + \small \betaj(i) + \small \varepsilon(ij)k , for i=1,; j= ; k=1, assumption: \small \varepsilon(ij)k ~ iid n (0, \small \sigma2) ; \small \taui ~ iid n(0, \small \sigmat2 ); \tiny \sum_{j=1}^{b} \small \betaj(i) =0; \small \varepsilon(ij)k and \small \taui are independent. using only the given information, derive the least square estimator of \small \betaj(i) using the appropriate constraints (sum to zero constraints) and derive e(msb(a) ).

The discrete random variables x and y take integer values with joint probability distribution given by f (x,y) = a(y−x+1) 0 ≤ x ≤ y ≤ 2 or =0 otherwise, where a is a constant. 1 tabulate the distribution and show that a = 0.1.2 find the marginal distributions of x and y. 3 calculate cov(x,y).4 state, giving a reason, whether x and y are independent. 5 calculate e(y|x = 1).
