Using 25 observations on each variable, a computer program generated the following multiple regression model:

yhat=69.2+2.87x1+5.81x21.83x3

If the standard errors of the coefficients of the independent variables are, respectively,

1.34, 4.84, and 0.70, can you conclude that the independent variable x1 is needed in the regression model? 

Let β1, β2, and β3 denote the coefficients of the 3 variables in this model, and use a two-sided hypothesis test and significance level of 0.05 to determine your answer.

 

Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places and round your answers as specified in the table.

The null hypothesis:
H0:
 
The alternative hypothesis:
H1:
 
The type of test statistic: (Choose one)ZtChi squareF      
     
The value of the test statistic:
(Round to at least two decimal places.)
 
The two critical values at the 0.05 level of significance:
(Round to at least two decimal places.)
and
Can you conclude that the independent variable
x1
is needed in the regression model?
