A sample of 25 observations on household expenditures for natural gas and electricity is used to estimate a linear demand function for gas.  The dependent variable (Y) is the quantity of gas consumed (thousand cubic feet), while the independent variable is electricity cost (X), measured in dollars:  Quantity of Gas Consumedi = beta0+ beta1  Electricity Costi + ui  Given β ^ 1 = 2.15 and SE( β ^ 1 ) = 0.6481,  test the hypothesis: H0: beta1 = 1 against H1: beta1  ≠ 1 at the 5% level of significance. The test statistic is [BLANK-1] (You must round your answer to three decimal places).  The critical value is [BLANK-2].  You [BLANK-3] the null hypothesis (choose reject or do not reject).
