Part A- Consider the following simple regression model for which ∈i ∼ N(0, σ)
y1 = β0 + 0.5β1 + ∈1
y2 = β0 - β1 + ∈2
y3 = β0 + 0.5β1 + ∈3
a. Write the above model in matrix form.
b. Find the least squares estimates using vectors and matrices.
c. Find the variance-covariance matrix of β^.
d. Find the hat matrix. Verify that the sum of the diagonal elements of the hat matrix is equal to 2(i=1Σn hii = k + 1).
e. Generate your own data with n = 3 based on this model and verify that the estimates of β0 and β1 are those given by part (b).
Part B- Suppose that you need to fit the multiple regression model yi = β0 - β1x1i + β2x2i + ∈, where E(∈i) = 0, E(∈i∈i) = 0 for i ≠ j, and var(∈i) = σ2, to the following data:
