In a simple linear regression model y = Bo + B12 + u. the conditional mean assumption E[ula = 0
implies that:
O The explanatory variable is correlated with unobserved variables
O The sample used for the estimation is random
O The expected value of the error term is equal to zero
O The fitted values correspond to the expected values of y conditional on x

Expert Solution
Step 1
Assumption :The Error Term has Conditional Mean of Zero
