Consider the regression model, BILLā = B1 + B2 (FRIENDS) + B3 Dā + ui,
where BILL: bill paid by a student for a post-paid mobile connection for the month of
July, 2015 (in rupees)
FRIENDS: number of close friends of the student
D;=1 if the student's parents live in the same city
= 0 otherwise
The regression results are reported as follows:
BILL = 539 45 (FRIENDS) - 134 D
(p-value) = (0.025) (0.003)
Q25.
(0.012)
n=45
(a)Is the data time series or cross section?
(b)
Write the regression equations for the students whose
parents stay in the same city and for students whose parents do
not stay in the same city.
(c)Test the statistical significance of B3 at 5% level of significance.
State the null and alternative hypothesis.
