hypothesis testing

Postby emerito » Sun Dec 17, 2017 6:31 am

Test the hypothesis H0 : β2 = 0 against H1 : β2 > 0 at the 5% significance level. I am trying to calculate it but it looks like I cannot use the symbol > but = to get some results. Any idea on how to solve this question? thank you.

EViews doesn't automatically do one-tailed tests.
