State and test appropriate hypothesis Interpret the R-square and state any relevant hypothesis tests related to them. Describe the hypothesis of primary interest for this study. What is your conclusion? What will be your prediction for an African country with income per capita 270 $ . total fertility rate 10.6 and average female fertility 64 To test a hypothesis that female literacy rate and total fertility\' rate jointly affect the child mortality\' you estimate yet another model Using relevant model (one of those estimate presented on the back of the page): state a relevant Null hypothesis-, conduct the test and make conclusions. Critical values of statistic can be found in the back of the textbook
