Question

(d) For a simple linear regression model show that the two normal equations (4.1)-(4.2) for WLS in page 116 of the textbook can be rewritten compactly in matrix form as X'WXb = X'WY, where W is a n x n diagonal matrix with diagonal entries w1, w2, ..., wn.

          (d) For a simple linear regression model show that the two normal equations (4.1)-(4.2) for WLS in page 116 of the textbook can be rewritten compactly in matrix form as

X'WXb = X'WY,

where W is a n x n diagonal matrix with diagonal entries w1, w2, ..., wn.

For a simple linear regression model, show that the two normal equations (4.1) and (4.2) for WLS on page 116 of the textbook can be rewritten compactly in matrix form as XWXb = X'WY, where W is an n x n diagonal matrix with diagonal entries W1, W2, ..., Wn.
