Question

In a single linear regression based on 30 observation, it is found that b_1 = 3.53 and Consider the hypothesis Calculate the value of the test statistic. Approximate the p-value At the 5% significance level, what is the conclusion to the hypothesis test? Is the explanatory variable significant? Reject H_0: the explanatory variable is significant Do not reject H_0: the explanatory variable is not significance Reject H_0: the explanatory variable is not significant Do nor reject H_0: the explanatory variable is significant.

Explanation / Answer

a)

Hence,

t = b1 / se(b1) = 3.53/1.35 = 2.614814815 [ANSWER]

**************************

b)

As df = n - 2 = 30 - 2 = 28, then using the table,

OPTION B: 0.01 < Pvalue < 0.02 [ANSWER]

**************************

c)

As P < 0.02 < 0.05, we reject Ho. Hence,

OPTION A. [ANSWER]
