In the multiple regression model Y = β1 + β2 X2 + β3 X3 + u, variable X3 is given by X3 = a+βX2. What is the value of the estimate of β3?
O It is b².
O It is not defined.
O It is b²βs.
O It is b.
Correct answer is option b.
The value that has been estimated to correspond to B3 is the same as the value that has been assigned to the coefficient b in the equation for X3.
Explain more
The value that has been estimated to correspond to B3 is the same as the value that has been assigned to the coefficient b in the equation for X3. The coefficient b is the slope of the line that depicts the link between X2 and X3; this slope is expressed as a percentage.
Correct answer is option b.
