30151301828510a. Write down a model that allows the variance ofu to differ between men and women. The variance should not dependon other factors.
4381157564150b. Is the variance of u higher for men or forwomen?

a We have been given with the data set and we need to find thevariance when it is only dependent on genderTo check it what should we do We should develop a model when there is established presence ofmale Clearly this occur for all case where male1As per the question the variance of residual depends on genderonlyor MathematicallyThis can be interpreted as the variance being equal tofor female and for maleThis can be a suitable model dependent only on genderb Now we need to check if the variance for male is higher incomparison to female To do so we will first of all run the regression    See Answer
