Solution

The statement that is FALSE is: "The value of the fourth regression coefficient in the summary(mymodel) output is the estimated difference between the expected values of Y at level 4 and level 3 of X."

In a linear regression model in R with a factor variable, the coefficients for the factor levels represent the difference between the mean of the response variable for the given level and the mean of the response variable for the reference level (usually the first level). So, the fourth regression coefficient represents the estimated difference between the expected values of Y at level 4 and level 1 of X, not level 3.

A UQ master student collected data on annual wages (Y, in $'000) and years of study (X) from a random sample of 10 part-time workers to test this proposition. Assuming a linear relationship between Y and X, the student used a least-squares method and found that the Y intercept = -21.50 and the slope = 9.73. The student also found that the standard error of the slope was 1.61. Based on this information, what is the value of the t test statistic if you are testing the null hypothesis that there is no linear relationship between the two variables, X and Y? Round your final answer to three decimal places.

A consumer's spending is widely believed to be a function of their income. To estimate this relationship, a university professor randomly selected 19 of his students and collected information on their spending (Y, in dollars) and income (X, in dollars) patterns in week 6 of the semester. Assuming a linear relationship between Y and X, the professor used the least-squares method and found that the Y intercept = 20.90 and the slope = 0.66. The professor also found that the standard error of the slope was 0.08. Based on this information, what is the value of the t test statistic if you are testing the null hypothesis that there is no linear relationship between the two variables, X and Y? Round your final answer to two decimal places.

The overall regression F-statistic tests the null hypothesis that: a. all slope coefficients and the intercept are zero. b. all slope coefficients are zero. c. the slope coefficient of the variable of interest is zero, but that the other slope coefficients are not. d. the intercept in the regression and at least one, but not all, of the slope coefficients is zero.
