-Repeat [[Weibull Example 1 Data|Example 1]] using maximum likelihood estimation.
-'''Solution'''
-In this case, we have non-grouped data with no suspensions or intervals, (i.e., complete data). The equations for the partial derivatives of the log-likelihood function are derived in [[Appendix:_Log-Likelihood_Equations|an appendix]] and given next:
-::<math> \frac{\partial \Lambda }{\partial \beta }=\frac{6}{\beta } +\sum_{i=1}^{6}\ln \left( \frac{T_{i}}{\eta }\right) -\sum_{i=1}^{6}\left( \frac{T_{i}}{\eta }\right) ^{\beta }\ln \left( \frac{T_{i}}{\eta }\right) =0
-</math>
-:and:
-::<math> \frac{\partial \Lambda }{\partial \eta }=\frac{-\beta }{\eta }\cdot 6+\frac{ \beta }{\eta }\sum\limits_{i=1}^{6}\left( \frac{T_{i}}{\eta }\right) ^{\beta }=0 </math>
-Solving the above equations simultaneously we get:
-::<math> \hat{\beta }=1.933,</math> <math>\hat{\eta }=73.526 </math>
-The variance/covariance matrix is found to be,
-::<math> \left[ \begin{array}{ccc} \hat{Var}\left( \hat{\beta }\right) =0.4211 & \hat{Cov}( \hat{\beta },\hat{\eta })=3.272  \\
-\hat{Cov}(\hat{\beta },\hat{\eta })=3.272 & \hat{Var} \left( \hat{\eta }\right) =266.646 \end{array} \right] </math>
-The results and the associated graph using Weibull++ (MLE) are shown next.

-You can view the variance/covariance matrix directly by clicking the ''Analysis Summary'' at the '''Main''' Panel.
