Consider adding the squared value of the average hours per week spent on math in class (ClassTime_Sq) to the model in Question 1. We obtain the following regression output: Source | SS df MS Number of obs = 2098 F( 5, 2092) = 691.84 Model | 1167.54288 5 233.508577 Prob > F 0. 0000 Residual | 706 . 088332 2092 . 337518323 R-squared = 0 . 6231 Adj R-squared = 0.6222 Total | 1873. 63122 2097 . 893481744 Root MSE = . 58096 MathTest_Gr3 | Coef.

[2 points] Why would we want to add this squared term in the first place (think in terms of economic theory)? 2. [4 points] What happens to the estimate, standard error, and p-value of the coefficient of ClassTime? What would be the most likely reason? 3. [10 points] Is adding this squared term a good idea? There are two tests you can perform to answer this. Please list the detailed steps of each of the tests and conclude (use 5% significance level)
