Consider the multiple regression of y on K variables X and an additional variable z

Chapter 4, Problem 8

(choose chapter or problem)

Consider the multiple regression of y on K variables X and an additional variable z. Prove that under the assumptions A1 through A6 of the classical regression model, the true variance of the least squares estimator of the slopes on X is larger when z is included in the regression than when it is not. Does the same hold for the sample estimate of this covariance matrix? Why or why not? Assume that X and z are nonstochastic and that the coefficient on z is nonzero.
