Question: Likelihood function and finding some constants

Hello Friends

I have a critical problem that I wish to solve it with maple

suppose we have a list like following: y_obs=(2,4,8,7,9,52,35,478,52) and corresponding variance σy=(.2,.3,.5,.87,.1.2,.22,.78,.99,1.5)
we know y as the function of x described such as y_theoric=x+p and minimizing X is

X=Sigma [(y_theoric-y_obs)^2]/σy which includes the sum of nine numbers...

the question is:

How we can find p from likelihood function and plot general behavior of y versus of x through two above series?

for example this solution used in article under the names Hubble parameter data constraints on dark energy by Yun Chen and Bhatra Ratra (Physics Letters B)

Thank you
