= a + bx for predicting T-bill return from the inflation rate? Write the formula replacing a and b by their respective numerical values. (5p) f) What is the predicted return on T-bill with 3% rate of inflation? (5p) g) What amount of the variance in T-bill (y) do the inflation rate (x) account for this sample? (R2 =?) Interpret the result in the context of the data. (3p) h) What is the unexplained variation in T-bill that is not related to the inflation rate? (3p) i) Write out the null and alternative hypotheses and conduct a hypot
