Problem 141SE
To model the relationship between y, a dependent variable, and x, an independent variable, a researcher hastaken one measurement on y at each of three differentx values. Drawing on his mathematical expertise, theresearcher realizes that he can fit the second-order model
E(y) = β0 + β1x + β2x2
and it will pass exactly through all three points, yieldingSSE = 0. The researcher, delighted with the excellentfit of the model, eagerly sets out to use it to make inferences. What problems will he encounter in attempting tomake inferences?
