be a little constructive and don't talk about some mud, its obvious that: << >>sysuse auto >>reg price weight length you get the equation: Y1=a1*x1+a2*x2+b1 >>reg price you get Y2=b2=mean(price) then (you can simply prove): Y1 = mean(weight)*a1+mean(length)*a2+b1 = b2 = Y2 = mean(price) = 6165.2 theory shows the same On Mon, Apr 29, 2013 at 2:19 PM, William Buchanan <william@williambuchanan.net> wrote: > If the editor of the Stata journal and a colleague of John Tukey are questioning your claims, I would venture to say: > > 1.
