Question:

Let the probability density function of the continuous random variable 𝑋 be
𝑓𝑋(π‘₯, πœ†) = { πœ†π‘’ βˆ’πœ†π‘₯ , 0,, 0, π‘₯ β‰₯ 0 otherwise , 
where πœ† > 0 is a parameter. If the observed sample values of 𝑋 are 
π‘₯1 = 1.75, π‘₯2 = 2.25, π‘₯3 = 2.50, π‘₯4 = 2.75, π‘₯5 = 3.25, then the Maximum Likelihood Estimator of πœ† is
