Example D — Simple linear regression inference Problem (representative): Data produce slope estimate β̂1 = 1.8, s_β̂1 = 0.4, n = 15. Test H0: β1 = 0 vs H1: β1 ≠ 0 at α = 0.05. Solution outline:
t=496−50010/25=-42=-2.00t equals the fraction with numerator 496 minus 500 and denominator 10 / the square root of 25 end-root end-fraction equals negative 4 over 2 end-fraction equals negative 2.00 3. Determine the P-Value and Critical Value Looking at a not replace it.
Glancing at a solution and thinking "that makes sense" does not equal mastery. You must be able to reproduce the steps on a blank sheet of paper.
