2. For the regression model Y₁ = 3x₂ + Ei i=1,2,..., n i.e. a straight line through the origin with the usual assumptions about the errors. In Exercise Sheet 2, you found the least squares estimator of 3₁ and its mean and variance. (a) Derive the form of a 100(1-a) % confidence interval for 3. (b) If we define the residual e; = Y; - and that ri, show that E[e₁] = 0 Var[e₁] = 0²

Find the least square regression line.

Suppose we have a multiple regression model with 2 predictors and an intercept. (Without any interaction or higher order terms, we have only the 2 predictors in the model and the intercept.) We have only n= 6 observations (so it would be rather silly to fit this model to this data, but let's pretend it is reasonable). We find the values of the first 5 residuals are: 2.6, 2.3, 2.5, -1.5, -1.4 What is the value of MSRes for this multiple regression model?

You forgot to JUSTIFY THE ANSWRRS LAST TIME

Students who complete their exams early certainly can intimidate the other students, but do the early finishers perform significantly differently than the other students? A random sample of 37 students was chosen before the most recent exam in Prof. J class, and for each student, both the score on the exam and the time it took the student to complete the exam were recorded. a. Find the least-squares regression equation relating time to complete (explanatory variable, denoted by x, in minutes) and exam score (response variable, denoted by y) by considering Sx = 15, sy = 17,r = 39.706, x = 90, ỹ = 78 b. The standard error of the slope of this least-squares regression line was approximately (Sp) is 20.13. Test for a significant positive linear relationship between the two variables exam score and exam completion time for students in Prof. J's class by doing a hypothesis test regarding the population slope B1. Write the null and Alternate hypothesis and conclude the results. (Assume that…

This table reports the regression coefficients when the returns of the size-institutionalownership portfolio (columns 1 and 2) returns are regressed on three variables: a constant(column 3), the stock market returns (column 4), and the change of the value weighted discountof the closed end fund industry (column 6). Columns 5 and 7 report the corresponding t-statistics of the coefficient estimates. Note that a t-statistic with an absolute value above 1.96means the coefficient estimate is significantly different from 0 at the 1% level. Column 8reports the R square of the regressions. Column 9 reports the mean institutional ownership ofeach portfolio. The last column reports the F-statistics for a multivariate test of the null                 hypothesis that the coefficient on ΔVWD in the Low (L) ownership portfolio is equal to theHigh (H) ownership portfolio. Two-tailed p-values are in parentheses. 1. What is the main finding of this Table? 2. What is the explanation for…
