Study Notes

Assignment Instructions

  • This is an individual assignment focused on econometric foundations.
  • All answers must show all steps and be detailed/clear.
  • No appendices are allowed.
  • Use appropriate graphs, formulas, and explanations.
  • Use a typed format (Word).

Task 1

  • Calculate the total monthly income of individuals (Ali, Faisal, Iqbal, Noreen) using summation notation.
  • The provided monthly incomes are: Ali (75000), Faisal (42000), Iqbal (33000), Noreen (65000).

Task 2

  • The linear function is Y = 5 + 2X.
  • Determine Y values for X = 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
  • Plot these points on a graph and draw a line representing the function.

Task 3

  • The quadratic function is Y = 2X² + 3X + 5.
  • Calculate Y values for X = -2, -1, 0, 1, and 2.
  • Plot these points on a graph and determine whether the graph represents a maximum or minimum.

Task 4

  • Estimate a linear regression Y on X using the given data points.
  • Calculate trend values and errors.
  • A table of X and corresponding Y values is given for regression analysis.

Task 5

  • The given function is Z = 2X² + 3Y² + 5XY.
  • Calculate the partial derivatives ∂Z/∂X and ∂Z/∂Y.
  • Show all steps in the calculation.
