Question: Refer to the feed efficiency data in Exercise 12.14. The researcher is relating y, feed efficiency, to the explanatory variables: x1, amount of feed additive;
Model 1: y = β0 + β1x1 + ɛ
Model 2: y = β0 + β1x1 + β2x2 + ɛ
Model 3: y = β0 + β1x1 + β2x21 + β3x2 + ɛ
Model 4: y = β0 + β1x1 + β2x21 + β3x2 + + β4x1x2 + β5x21x2 ɛ
a. In model 4, which of the coefficients are significantly different from 0 at the .05 level?
b. Do the added terms in model 4 provide a significant gain over model 3 in the fit of the model.
c. Are your conclusions from parts (a) and (b) consistent? Explain in detail.
