2.4 We have defined the simple linear regression model to be y =B1 + B2x+e. Suppose however that we knew, for a fact, that ßı = 0. (a) What does the linear regression model look like, algebraically, if ßı = 0? (b) What does the linear regression model look like, graphically, if ßı = 0? (c) If Bi=0 the least squares "sum of squares" function becomes S(R2) = Gyi - B2x;)?. Using the data, x 1 2 3 4 5...

u iegression result presented in this 9.13. Consider the following model: Y; = B1 + B2 Di tui where D = 0 for the first 20 observations and D = 1 for the remainine 30 observations. You are also told that var(u) = 300. a. How would you interpret B and B2? b. What are the mean values of the two groups? c. How would you compute the variance of (Bi + B2)? Note: You are given that the cov...
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. Question...
Question 3 [4 points] Suppose the model is: Y B1+B2Xu. What is the nonlinear regression algorithm to estimate the model (i.e., list the steps to estimate the coefficients)?
1. What is the coefficient of determination and why is it important? What does it show us? 2. What is heteroskedasticity, which assumption of the linear model does it violate, and how can we test for it? 3. What is multicollinearity? What problems can it cause to our results? 4. If you decide to scale both your dependent and your independent variable by 100, how will your regression results change? 5. Using N=40 observations, you estimate the following model y...
