The standard errors are in 0. i. Interpret the constant and the coefficient of the dummy variable. (4 marks) ii. What is the optimal value of net exports? (2 mark) iii. Test the hypothesis, at the 5% level of significance, that a 1% increase in income causes the inflation rate to increase by 3%. Be sure to show all steps. (6 marks) iv. Is β 3
