Female is a binary variable indicating whether or not the respondent is female and hh_child is a binary variable indicating whether or not there is a child in the household. What is the effect of having a child in the household on minutes spent on housework for women? What is the effect of having a child in the household on minutes spent on housework for men? How does having a child affect men and women’s time spent on housework differently? 2. You have weekly earnings and age data from a sub-sample of 145,393 individuals using the Current Population Survey in 2020. Given the overall mean of $1067.11 and a standard deviation of $728.29, construct a 95% confidence interval for average earnings in the entire population. This can be calculated in stata or with a calculator. Either way, show your work.

(0.31) (0.57) (0.44) (0.82)

R2= 0.06

Housework_min is the amount of time spent on housework in minutes on the previous day. Female is a binary variable indicating whether or not the respondent is female and hh_child is a binary variable indicating whether or not there is a child in the household.
