question 36

Multiple Choice

As part of a study at a large university, data were collected on n = 224 freshmen computer science (CS) majors in a particular year. The researchers were interested in modeling y, a studentʹs grade
Point average (GPA) after three semesters, as a function of the following independent variables
(recorded at the time the students enrolled in the university) : $x _ { 1 } =$ average high school grade in mathematics (HSM)
$x _ { 2 } =$ average high school grade in science (HSS)
$x _ { 3 } =$ average high school grade in English (HSE)
$x _ { 4 } =$ SAT mathematics score (SATM)
$x _ { 5 } =$ SAT verbal score (SATV)
A first-order model was fit to data.
Give the null hypothesis for testing the overall adequacy of the model.

• A) \(H _ { 0 } : \beta _ { 0 } + \beta _ { 1 } x _ { 1 } + \beta _ { 2 } x _ { 2 } + \beta _ { 3 } x _ { 3 } + \beta _ { 4 } x _ { 4 } + \beta _ { 5 } x _ { 5 } = 0\)
• B) \(H _ { 0 } : \beta _ { 1 } = \beta _ { 2 } = \beta _ { 3 } = \beta _ { 4 } = \beta _ { 5 } = 0\)
• C) \(H _ { 0 } : \beta _ { 0 } = \beta _ { 1 } = \beta _ { 2 } = \beta _ { 3 } = \beta _ { 4 } = \beta _ { 5 } = 0\)
• D) \(H _ { 0 } : \beta _ { 1 } = 0\)
