its a significance of regression coefficients. if u check d question again, u would know its all about errors before judgement(hypothesis). if the null hypotheses should be rejected or accepted,. now u check d probability of of having a type 1 error or two error with either decisions u make. u state they hypotheses then set the decision criteria . these r works of pearson n d likes of fisher. hope u get d basic?
What you're blabbing is not related to the question above. Q.1 only asks one to proof that the coefficient of an estimator is unbiased. Q2 requires one to proof that Gaussian estimator has the least minimum variance among other unbiased estimators. Q2 is an extension of Q1 when solving mathemacally. The process can take up to 30 minutes if one is fast enough. So, it is not about hypothesis and interpretation of regression result.

Shut up there my friend. I did economics in my first and second degree. Claiming to know what you're ignorant of and deceiving people.

They have interpretation in econometrics.

When the errors amount to zero, it's homoskedacity.

But if errors don't amount to zero, it's heteroskedacity.

The questions are just elementary in econometrics...
the English is not correct

In Q1. You're asked to show that the parameter estimate is a linear function of the dependent variable (Y), which is simple but proofing that parameter estimate or Gaussian estimator is unbiased and definitely not as simple as what you extracted from that text. You just slowed that the sum of the error term is zero which answers Q2, but there is an extension by proofing the minimum variance of Gaussian estimator. U 2 much.

Don't confuse your self. Q1 is pretty straightforward. Read instructions before Q1. I'll do the proof later in the day

For Q2, look at proof(1), letter e has a bar on top, which means 'mean'. If you go back to basic stat, summation of series of variables /constants divided by n is the mean. Now look at the two last lines. The summation you were talking about was divided by n. Hence that whole expression amounts to mean of e and we know the value of b1 by virtue of linear regression model. Hence proved

Re: Strange Test Econometrics Question In UNILAG by emmy994: 3:46am On Oct 12, 2017
These questions are so cheap bro. As a statistics student I was taught how to express what you have on your question 1 as linear combination of y. Also the number 2 required you to state the least square criterion. Which is 'the least square seeks to minimize sum of squares error. Put it mathematically bro. U no read ur book......

"Amounted to zero or did not amounted to zero" what kind of English is that? It should be "amounted to zero or did not AMOUNT to zero"

So much from unilag, its like saying "arrived at zero or did not ARRIVED at zero" the correct statement should be "arrived at zero or did not ARRIVE at zero" or saying "he did not came to zero"

Up unilag

Did it occur to you that it could be typographical error?

When it's time for you to sit for any examination make sure you don't answer any question that has one word that was wrongly spelt OK, so that you go pass well well from the back.
Re: Strange Test Econometrics Question In UNILAG by kjsun15: 5:19am On Oct 12, 2017
Just prove that sum of errors equal estimated mean I.e. prove how to justify ols unbiased estimates thru BLUE. Very simple bro.

Forget the English baba, we all know he is saying equal to or not equal to. Na real set up, whay could they have done to Mr. Lecturer that made him finish them like this?

The question is very simple. All the lecturer is asking for is just for you to proof and derive the least square formula.... Unilag olodo's I hail thee.....
Re: Strange Test Econometrics Question In UNILAG by wi5dom(m): 6:27am On Oct 12, 2017
Its been like 2years or so... uniben days.

I believe the answers lies here

y= b-x ; Y' - B' - X'= 0
; Y - b0 - b1X = 0.


Y- b0 - b1x = 0

Y - ( y - b0- b1x) = 0

[Y'- ( y - b0 - b1x)] ² = Z


as one need to find the dy/dy, dy/dx , dy/db and dy/dz

chairman maybe u did not read well, all I see is a logical question nd am very sure the answer is in your note so leave social media and use ur time well on reading.




when I was in 100l my biology lecturer set a question using flowers anther and filament with butterfly as a compulsory question I almost left it unanswered before I reason d man was asking question on mito
sis and meiosis

so oga read well

It could have been a typo. Lecturers don't type their questions themselves.He should have vetted it before mass printing though.Mind you I am not defending the lecturer but it happens.
