2) Based off the table presented above, A researcher applies a simple regression to get the results shown below using n=8 observations. Which of the followings is the 95 percent confidence interval for the estimated slope?
a) [1.333,2.284]
b) [1.269,2.398]
c) [1.602,2.064]
d) [1.118,2.449]
a) test statistic for slope
T =( b1- B1 )/SEb1= 1.833/0.2307= 7.95
False.
b)Alpha=0.05 , n=8 , df= n-2 = 6
95 percent confidence interval for the estimated slope
Beta 1 +/- [ t crit * SEBeta1]
1.833 +/- [ 2.4469 * 0.2307 ]
1.833 +/- 0.5645
1.269 < beta < 2.398

Simple Linear regression
1. A researcher uses a simple linear regression to measure the relationship between the monthly salary (Salary measured in dollars) of data scientists and the number of years since being awarded a Master degree (Master Degree). A random sample of 80 observations was collected for the analysis. A researcher used the econometric model which has the following specification Salary,-β0 + β, Master-Degree, + εί, where i = 1, , 80 The (incomplete) Excel output of equation (1)...

Part 2: Simple Linear Regressions – Chapter 14 (2 questions with a total of 11 sub-sections, 6 points per sub-section, part total 66 points) 2) A local grocery store wants to predict its daily sales in dollars (y). The manager believes that the amount of newspaper advertising (x) significantly affects sales. He randomly selects 7 days of data (n=7) consisting of daily grocery store sales (y, in thousands of dollars) and advertising expenditures (x, in thousands of dollars). The Excel...
From Stock & Watson (2019) Exercise 5.1: A researcher, using data on class size (CS) and average test scores from 100 third-grade classes, obtains the following OLS regression results (with standard errors in parentheses): TestScore = 520.4-5.82xCS, R2 -0.08, SER - 11.5. (20.4) (2.21) (a) Construct a 95% confidence interval for B, (the regression slope coefficient). Can you reject the null hypothesis that B, = 0 ? Why or why not? (b) Construct a 99% confidence interval for B. (the...
For a simple linear regression results shown below, the P-value for the slope coefficient is as follows: a hypothesis test of whether the regression coefficient ß1 is zero. a measure that determines if the linearity assumption is satisfied a hypothesis test of whether the regression coefficient for Advertising is equal to 6.738. the variability of the observed Y-values from the predicted values.
