Question

In a regression analysis involving 30 observations, the following estimated regression equation was obtained.

y ˆ = 17.6 + 3.8x1 - 2.3x2 + 7.6x3 + 2.7x4

Suppose x1 and x4 are dropped from the model and the following estimated regression equation is obtained.

y ˆ = 11.1 - 3.6x2 + 8.1x3

For this model SST = 1805 and SSR = 1705.

Compute SSE for this model.
  

Use an F test and = .05 to determine whether x1 and x4 contribute significantly to the model.

What is the value of the F test statistic (to 2 decimals)?

Explanation / Answer

a. SSE = SST - SSR = 1,805 - 1,780 = 25

MSR = SSR/(k) = 1,780/4 = 445

MSE = SSE/(n-k-1) = 25/25 = 1

F = MSR/MSE = 445/1 = 445

Associated p-value = 0.000

At 5% los, critical value = 2.759 < F, hence Conclude that the relationship is significant.

Now,

SSE = SST - SSR = 1805-1705 = 100

F= (1705/2)/(100/27) = 230.175

Associated p-value = 0.000

At 5% los, critical value = 3.354 < F, hence Conclude that these variables contribute significantly to the model.
