0If you want to find the maximum likelihood estimate, you first need to derive the likelihood. Did you get that far? Here is a primer: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_likelihood_estimator – 2011-07-05

2You asked this question for the method of moments, but you wanted the MLE. I am assuming in that time you've come up with something... surely... what have you tried? What is your effort? I'll write something that will guide you, but I don't want to just write the solution. – 2011-07-05
