Testing Hypotheses in Multivariate Linear Regression Using SAS?

I have a model y= beta0 + beta1 x1 + beta2 x2 + eps, eps~N(0,1).

How to test hypothesis beta1=0 ? Is the same test for beta2=0?

you can use a t test just like you do in simple linear regression,
except the degrees of freedom is n-3 not n-2,
You can test each variable separately.

you have to be careful about any conlcusions you make for example if x1 and x2 are highly correlated.
 
Can someone help me to do this in SAS?
Is this correct?

PROC REG DATA = dataset;
MODEL y = x1 x2;
test x1=0 ;
test x2=0;
run;

How can I save p value from each test to a new data?
 
Namaste & G'day Postulate: A strongly-knit team wins on average over a less knit one Fundamentals: - Two teams face off with 4 players each - A polo team consists of players that each have assigned to them a measure of their ability (called a "Handicap" - 10 is highest, -2 lowest) I attempted to measure close-knitness of a team in terms of standard deviation (SD) of handicaps of the players. Failure: It turns out that, more often than, a team with a higher SD wins. In my language, that...
Hi all, I've been a roulette player for more than 10 years (although I took time off here and there) and it's only now that I'm trying to understand the physics of the game. Basically my strategy in roulette is to divide the wheel roughly into two halves (let's call them A and B). My theory is that in roulette there will invariably be variance. In other words, if A comes up 5 times in a row, B will be due to come up soon. However I have been proven wrong many times, and I have seen some...
