While Testing Hypotheses for Regression Coefficients, the T-Test for the Slope

question 15

Multiple Choice

While testing hypotheses for regression coefficients, the t-test for the slope is expressed as:

• A) \( t=\frac{b_{1}-0}{\text { standard error }} \)
• B) \( t=\frac{b_{1}-0}{b_{0}+b_{1}} \)
• C) \( t=\frac{b_{1}}{b_{0}-b_{1}} \)
• D) \( t=\frac{(\text { standard error })^{2}}{b_{0}-b_{1}} \)
