Consider the linear probability model Yi = β0 + β1Xi + ui. Assume E(ui|Xi)=0. Which of the following statements are true? Question 5 options: The predicted value of the dependent variable can be greater than 1 or less than 0. Thus, the OLS estimator of β1 is biased. The predicted value of the dependent variable will always be between 0 and 1. Thus, the OLS estimator of β1 is unbiased. The predicted value of the dependent variable will always be...

Consider the regression model given by: Yi = βo + β1Xi + β2Zi+ ui Suppose that an econometrician wishes to test the null hypothesis given by: Ho: β1 + β2 = 0 Use this null hypothesis to specify a restricted form of the regression model (in a form that may be estimated using an OLS estimation procedure). State the equation that you could estimate as the restricted version of this model.
