Let Y(1) be the first order statistic of a random sample of size n from a distribution that has pdf f(y) = e^-(y-θ); θ < y < ∞, zero elsewhere. What is the limiting distribution of Zn = n(Y(1) - θ)?

Explore the limiting distribution of Zn = n(Y(1) - θ), where Y(1) is the first order statistic of a random sample from an exponential distribution. This solution covers key concepts in probability theory, including order statistics, exponential distributions, and limiting behavior. Suitable for advanced undergraduate and graduate students.
