A Regression Analysis (Involving 45 Observations) Relating a Dependent Variable y^\widehat { y }

Question 16

Essay

A regression analysis (involving 45 observations) relating a dependent variable (y) and two independent variables resulted in the following information.
y^\widehat { y } = 0.408 + 1.3387x1 + 2x2

The SSE for the above model is 49.
When two other independent variables were added to the model, the following information was provided.
y^\widehat { y } = 1.2 + 3.0x1 + 12x2 + 4.0x3 + 8x4

This latter model's SSE is 40.
At a 5% significance level, test to determine if the two added independent variables contribute significantly to the model.
