1. A sample consists of 1,388 observations, where the unit of
observation is an individual. packsi is the number of packs of
cigarettes woman i smoked per day while pregnant, and bwghti is the
birth weight (in ounces) of the woman’s child. Given the
information found in the attached STATA output,
(a) The population model implied by the regression output
is
(b) The (population) parameter of interest is
(c) The estimate of the parameter of interest is

Note: I will be going over the answers in class on January 24th. As such, late assignments will not be accepted. Assume you are interested in housing prices. You believe that the number of bedrooms will mpact the price of a home. Let bedroomi represent the number of bedrooms in home, and price, its price (in dollars). In this case the unit of observation is the home a) Write the population model of interest. b) Name two factors not accounted...
3. (6 points) The dataset BWGT contains data on births to women in the United States. Two variables of interest are the dependent variable, infant birth weight in ounces (bwght), and an explanatory variable, the average number of cigarettes the mother smoked per day during pregnancy (cigs). The following simple OLS regression was estimated using data on n=1,388 births: bwgt = 119.77 – 0.514cigs What is the predicted birth weight when cigs=0? What about when cigs=20 (one pack per day)?...

Question 3 A researcher is interested in the relationship between the birth weights of infants and mothers' smoking habits. He uses the birth weight of an infant (ounces) and the average number of cigarettes the mother smokes per day during the pregnancy as the dependent and independent variables, y and x, respectively. Using a sample of size (1388 the following model is obtained by the method of least squares: y-119.770.514.x (3.15) (0.13) SE e the figures in brackets are the...
1. In the simple regression model y = + β1x + u, suppose that E (u) 0. Letting oo-E(u), show that the model can always be rewrit ten with the same slope, but a new intercept and error, where the new error has a zero expected value 2. The data set BWGHT contains data on births to women in the United States. Two variables of interest are the dependent variable, nfan birth weight in ounces (bught), and an explanatory variable,...
