question 42

Essay

Consider the simple population regression model where the treatment is the same for the members of the treatment group, and hence X is a binary variable.

How is the test for the statistical significance of the coefficient on X related to the test for differences in means between two populations, when their variances are different? Write down the null and alternative hypothesis in each case.
