Question

In order to test for the significance of a regression model involving 4 independent variables and 47 observations, the numerator and denominator degrees of freedom (respectively) for the critical value of F are Select one: a. 3 and 43 b. 4 and 43 c. 4 and 42 d. 3 and 42

Answer 1

Answer:

c. 4 and 42

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$p = 4$ -- independent variables

$n = 47$ ---- observations

Required

The numerator and denominator degrees of freedom

The denominator degrees of freedom is:

$df =n - p - 1$

$df =47 - 4 - 1$

$df =42$

For the numerator, we have:

$df = p$

$df = 4$
