Professor E.Z. Stuff has decided that the least squares estimator is too much trouble. Noting that two points determine a line, Dr. Stuff chooses two points from a sample of size N and draws a line between them, calling the slope of this line the EZ estimator of B2 in the simple regression model. Algebraically, if the two points are (xı,y) and (x2,y2), the EZ estimation rule is 2.8 y2-y1 EZ Assuming that all the assumptions...
2. Consider the simple linear regression model: where e1, .. . , es, are i.i.d. N (0, o2), for i= 1,2,... , n. Suppose that we would like to estimate the mean response at x = x*, that is we want to estimate lyx=* = Bo + B1 x*. The least squares estimator for /uyx* is = bo bi x*, where bo, b1 are the least squares estimators for Bo, Bi. ayx= (a) Show that the least squares estimator for...
