Essay

A regression was performed on a sample of 20 observations. Two independent variables were included in the analysis, x and z. The relationship between x and z is z = x2. The following estimated equation was obtained. A regression was performed on a sample of 20 observations. Two independent variables were included in the analysis, x and z. The relationship between x and z is z = x<sup>2</sup>. The following estimated equation was obtained.   = 23.72 + 12.61x + 0.798z The standard errors for the coefficients are S<sub>b1</sub> = 4.85 and S<sub>b2</sub> = 0.21 For this model, SSR = 520.2 and SSE = 340.6  a.Estimate the value of y when x = 5. b.Compute the appropriate t ratios. c.Test for the significance of the coefficients at the 5% level.
