(iii) Test the null hypothesis that roshas no affect on salary against the alternative
that roshas a positive effect. Carry out the test at the 10% significance level.
Ans. The 10% critical value for a one-tailed test, using df= 200, is 1.29. (table)
The tstat on rosis .00024/.00054 = .44, which is well below the critical value.
Therefore, we fail to reject H0at the 10% significance level and say that the
relationship between rosand salaryis statistically indistinguishable from zero.

(iv) Would you include rosin a final model explaining CEO compensation in terms
of firm performance?
Ans. Based on this sample, rosis not a statistically significant predictor of CEO
compensation. However, including rosmay not be causing harmQ. What does
this depend on?
-It depends on how correlated it is with the other independent variables
The following table contains the ACT scores and the GPA
