(b) (10 points) Is it possible to remove variables Year and Units from Model 1'? Model 2 uses only the predictors Ratio and iMale. Conduct a hypothesis test and make an appropriate conclusion about which model should be used. Be sure to state your hypotheses, calculate your test statistic, and make a conclusion in context; you may assume relevant assumptions are met. 10g (13(%) : 50 + latio + giMale (Backpack Model 2) Backpack Problem CO L Year 0 0 0 0 06 0 Back Probe?
