a. (5) From the multiple regression model we want to test the following hypothesis: Ho: β1-0 and β2-β3 and β5-1 Rewrite the null hypothesis Ho in the form of RB-r using the matrix R and two vectors B and r b. (5) Consider the following wage regression result: log(wage) 3.240.06educ 0.51Female 0.01educ Female, where educ denotes years of education and Female is a dummy variable for females. What is the return to schooling for male workers? What is the return...
Question 12 3 pts Consider the estimated multiple regression model using OLS, with the standard errors in parentheses below each estimated coefficient. There are 1,576 observations in the sample: Ỹ = 10 + 2x - 5X36 (3) (1.5) (2) Suppose the null hypothesis is that the true coefficient (population parameter) for X3 is equal to 1. The test statistic associated with this null hypothesis is: -3 0-2 O 2
Question 4 3 pts Consider the estimated multiple regression model using OLS, with the standard errors in parentheses below each estimated coefficient. There are 1,576 observations in the sample: Y = 10 + 2X2i - 5Xzi (3) (1.5) (2) Suppose that the sample mean of Y is 30. For the 18th observation (i=18) in the sample, the value of X2 is 50, the value of X3 is 16, and the value of Y is 20. The residual associated with the...
