Multiple Regression Coefficient Derivation in Non-Matrix Form [duplicate]
I've come across some equations on regression coefficients for multiple linear regression(Fig.1 and Fig.2) with 2 independent variables and was wondering how they were derived. FIG.1 FIG.2 I'm aware ...

Least square estimation with quadratic fit. Any simple solution? [duplicate]
We consider the least square problem in the case where we got only one independant variable $x_i$ and only one dependant variable $y_i$. The number of observations is $n$. In the case of the linear ...

In a linear model, why do we have $-2X^T \vec{y} + 2X^T X \vec{\beta}=0$? [duplicate]
When we derive the estimates of $\vec{\beta}$ such that they minimize the sum of squared error ($SSE$) we begin with $\sum_{i=1}^{n} (y_i - (\beta_0 + \beta_1x_1 + ... + \beta_kx_k))^2$. This is ...

Is there a way to use the covariance matrix to find coefficients for multiple regression?
For simple linear regression, the regression coefficient is calculable directly from the variance-covariance matrix $C$, by $$ C_{d, e}\over C_{e,e} $$ where $d$ is the dependent variable's index, ...

Closed form solution for slope coefficients in bivariate regression
In a univariate regression, $Y=a+bX+e$, the solution for slope b is given by $COV(X,Y)/VAR(X)$. Is there a similar expression for a bivariate regression $Y=a+bX+cZ+e$. What is the closed form ...

General expression for a single coefficient $\hat{\beta_1}$ in a multiple linear regression? [duplicate]
Suppose I am trying to estimate a multiple linear regression with $k$ regressors and I have $n$ observations $$Y = X\beta + \epsilon$$ Where $\beta \in \mathbb{R}^k$ and $X \in \mathbb{R}^{k \times ...

Show reg y on x in $y_{it} = \beta x_{it} + \theta_{i} + \epsilon_{it} \equiv y_{it} - \bar{y_{I}} = \beta(x_{it} - \bar{x_{I}}) + \epsilon_{it}$
So I'm trying to show that regressing y on x in this case (fixed effects model): $y_{it} = \beta x_{it} + \theta_{i} + \epsilon_{it}$ is the same as this regression: $y_{it} - \bar{y_{l}} = \beta(x_{...

Intuition regarding regression through the origin
An exercise asked to obtain properties of the lineal model $$E[y_i]=\beta x_i\qquad i=1,\cdots,n$$ where $Var[y_i]=\sigma^2$. In one of its sections, we had to calculate and estimator for $\beta$ ...
