Suppose you run a regression y=alpha + beta*x + u. You know that the estimated coefficient is 2.94 and the standard error is 1.09. What is the value of t-statistic for your estimated coefficient beta?
Suppose you have a large, random sample of the variables Y and X. You then regress Y on X and get the following results (with standard errors in parentheses):
Y=16.8-3.9x
(3.8) (1.2)
The numbers 16.8 and -3.9 are the realized values for the intercept and slope (respectively) of the regression equation describing the sample, which are consistent estimators for what population parameters?
The intercept and slope (respectively) of the sample determining function. The intercept and slope (respectively) of the regression equation that best fits the population.
Instructions: Enter your responses rounded to three decimal places. If you are entering any negative numbers be sure to include a negative sign (-) in front of those numbers:
