Question

Given the model y = ?? + ?1X1 + ?2X2 + ?3X12 + ?4X22 + ?   and with n = 20

What is the null hypothesis for testing the squared terms as significant to the model when taken together?

a) Ho: ?3 = ?4 = 0

b) Ha: at least one beta not equal to zero

c) Ho: ?3 = 0

d) Ho: ?1 = ?2 = ?3 = ?4 = 0

Refer to question 8. We can reject Ho if the partial F test statistic is _________  . (with n= 20)

a) >3.06

b) <3.06

c) >3.68

d) <3.68

d) <3.68

Explanation / Answer

The correct hypothesis is mentioned in option A

While testing this hypothesis, the F statistic is calculated by taking SS due Ho in the numerator which has 2 degrees of freedom and SS error in the denominator which has 15 degrees of freedom.

Thus the tabulated Fvalue is F(2,15) = 3.68

We reject Ho if F > 3.68

Option C
