find 95% confidence interval
Consider the estimation of α in
$frac{2}{alpha^2}(alpha -x)$ , $0<x<alpha$
Suppose you only have one observation. Find a 95% confidence interval using the statistical method.
To solve it, calculate $alpha$ parameter by the maximum likelihood method.
$hat alpha=2x$
My question is, what do I do next?
I am confused that it is a single sample, so I am not sure that the central limit theorem can be used to obtain $N (0,1)$ because I need $n>30$
Can anybody help me?
