1. Here ß2 is estimated to be 0.035.
The given is a log linear model. It's states that for every unit change in log(x), log(y) changes by 0.035 on an average.
This equation can be solved using the OLS method. ẞ2 measures the elasticity of Y with respect to X. This is also called a constant elasticity model as ß2 is fixed

Question 10 1 pts In the Chow test regression model y = B1 -+ 81d+ B2x + d2d. x + u , what would it mean if 2 0 ? O The average values of x are equal in both groups. O The marginal effect of x on y is equal in both groups. O For individuals with d 1, x has no effect on y. O If x 0, both groups have the same expected value for y.

sve v anu i, respectively. 7. Regression without any regressor. Suppose you are given the model: Y = pi + uj. Use OLS to find the estimator of Bi. What is its variance and the RSS? Does the estimated By make intuitive sense? Now consider the two-variable model Y = B1 + B2X; +ui. Is it worth adding X, to the model? If not, why bother with regression analysis?
