We can solve it by the same kind of algebra we used to solve theordinary Linear Least Squares problem. But why would we want to solve it?
The standard errors from the simulation are 0:22 for the intercept and 0:23 for the slope, so R’s internal calculations are working very well. All of this was possible because the Oracle told us what the variance function
