An over-the-counter drug manufacturer wants to examine the effectiveness of a new drug in curing an illness most commonly found in older patients. Thirteen patients are given the new drug and 13 patients are given the old drug. To avoid bias in the experiment, they are not told which drug is given to them. To check how the effectiveness depends on the age of patients, the following data have been collected.
To examine the differences between salaries of male and female middle managers of a large bank, 90 individuals were randomly selected, and two models were created with the following variables considered:
Model A: Salary = β0 + β1Educ + β2Exper + β3Train + β4Gender + ε
Model B: Salary = β0 + β1Educ + β2Exper + β3Gender + ε
Assuming the same years of education and months of experience, what is the null hypothesis for testing whether the mean salary of males is greater than the mean salary of females using Model B? Multiple Choice

Old Drug: | Patient Age | 21 | 28 | 33 | 33 | 38 | 43 | 48 | 53 | 53 | 58 | 63 | 67 | 52 |
Effectiveness | 56 | 55 | 61 | 54 | 58 | 65 | 64 | 61 | 69 | 71 | 66 | 70 | 60 |
The variables are
Effectiveness = the response variable measured on a scale
from 0 to 100,
Age = the age of a patient (in years),
Drug = a dummy variable that is 1 for the new drug and 0
for the old drug.
The regression model, Effectiveness =
β0 + β1Age +
β2Drug +
β3Age × Drug, is estimated
and the following results are obtained.
Coefficients | Standard Error | t-stat | p-value | |
Intercept | 47.04 | 3.1479 | 14.9423 | 5.31E-13 |
Age | 0.34 | 0.0665 | 5.0610 | 4.55E-05 |
Drug | −40.86 | 4.0798 | −10.016 | 1.17E-09 |
Age × Drug | 0.70 | 0.0879 | 7.9385 | 6.71E-08 |
Which of the following is the estimated regression model for the new drug?
Multiple Choice
EffectivenessˆEffectiveness^ = 47.04 + 0.34Age – 40.86Drug + 0.70Age × Drug
EffectivenessˆEffectiveness^ = 47.04 + 0.34Age
EffectivenessˆEffectiveness^ = 47.04 + 0.34Age + 0.70Age × Drug
EffectivenessˆEffectiveness^ = 6.18 + 1.04Age
