Hi.

I'm having trouble with two different questions in linear models.
Any help would be greatly appriciated.

1. In a regular linear regression model I have to find the least squares
estimate for beta under the null hypotheses of the form H_0 : C*beta = a

I know that the way to do this is by Lagrange multipliers, defining a
function g(beta, lambda) = ||y - X*beta||^2 + lambda(C*beta - a) and
minimizing with respect to beta and lambda. The problem is, after taking
the partial derivative with respect to lambda I get the completely
miningless result of C*beta - a = 0.

I looks like a stupid error which I can not find.

2. In a one-way ANOVA model with random effect
y_ij = myu + alpha_i + e_ij

I have to find the maximum likelyhood estimators for model parameters
myu, alpha_i and sigma2 and also test the hypotheses
H_0 : alpha_1 = ... = alpha_m = 0

I know how to do this with fixed effects, but I get confused by the
random effects implications.

Any help would be greatly appriciated.

Thanks.
