1. Consider the model y = X\beta + u, where y is a $T \times 1$ vector of observations on a dependent variable, X is a $T \times k$ full-rank matrix of observations on exogenous variables, $\beta$ is a $k \times 1$ vector of unknown parameters, and u is a $T \times 1$ vector of unobserved normally distributed disturbances, with $E(u) = 0$,and with $E(uu') = \sigma^2I$. (a) [20%] Derive the ordinary least squares estimator of $\beta$, $\hat{\beta}$, and show it is unbiased. (b) [20%] Derive the variance-covariance matrix for $\hat{\beta}$. (c) [20%] Let $\hat{u} = y - X\hat{\beta}$, show $\hat{u} = My = Mu$, where $M = (I - X(X'X)^{-1}X')$ (d) [20%] What is $E(\hat{u}\hat{u}')$? Using this derive an unbiased estimator of $\sigma^2$. (e) [20%] How would you estimate the standard error of the $i$th element of $\beta$, $\beta_i$?

UCD administrators are interested in the relationship between a student’s score on a first year maths module and their final grade classification. From a sample of 725 students who completed their degree, 612 obtained a C or above on the maths module in their first year, and 376 of the 725 ended up with a 2:1 degree or above. 335 of the 725 both got a C or above in the module and ended up with a 2:1 or above degree. Let A be the event that a student gains a C or above on the maths module, and B the event that a student ends up with a 2:1 or above for their final degree. (a) What are the names of the two main interpretations of probability? Briefly explain how they differ. [3 marks] (b) Given the data above, calculate: (i) P(A \cap B) [1 mark] (ii) P(A \cup B) [2 marks] (c) Define the terms ‘independent’, ‘mutually exclusive’, and ‘exhaustive’. Do any of these terms apply to events A and B? Explain your answers. [4 marks] (d) What is the probability that a student will gain a 2:1 or above given that they obtain C or above in the maths module? What is the probability that they will get a 2:1 or above given that they do not obtain a C or above? Interpret your answer

1. Childhood lead poisoning is a public health concern in the United States. In a certain population, three children in ten have a high blood lead level (defined as 30 grams/liter or more). If six children are randomly selected, calculate the probability that less than 2 of the 6 of the children have a high blood lead level. 2. In a certain population, an average of 26 new cases of esophageal cancer are diagnosed each year. Find the probability that in the next year, there will be 25 diagnosed cases of esophageal cancer. 3. In a certain population, an average of 26 new cases of esophageal cancer are diagnosed each year. Find the probability that in the next month, there will be less than two diagnosed cases of esophageal cancer. 4. The partial pressure of oxygen, PaO2, is a measure of the amount of oxygen in the blood. Assume that the distribution of PaO2 levels among newborns has an average of 38 mm Hg and a standard deviation of 9, and that these readings have a normal distribution. What proportion of PaO2 readings are greater than 40 mm Hg?5. The partial pressure of oxygen, PaO2, is a measure of the amount of oxygen in the blood.

5. Consider the behavior of the heat equation in heterogeneous materials with varying thermal conductivities. Investigate how spatial variations in thermal properties affect the propagation and distribution of heat. Discuss how one might modify the heat equation to accommodate varying conductivities or heat sources in different regions.

6 Originated by well known economist, version of the Laffer curve is shown below. 1200 Revenue (in billions) 1000 800 600 400 200 20 40 Tax Rate Percent 60 80 edit graph on desmos 100 According to his theory, decreasing the tax rate on individuals could increase the total revenue to the government. The theory is that people will work harder and earn more money if that are taxed at a lower rate. Suppose the Laffer Curve is given by the function: $f(x) = \frac{x(x-100)(x-160)}{240}$, $0 \le x \le 100$ where $f(x)$ is
