An investigator interested in regional differences in breastfeeding attitudes and practices conducts a national survey. The survey includes a multi-item instrument measuring breastfeeding attitudes. The resulting breastfeeding attitudes scale takes values ranging from 1 to 5, with higher numbers representing more favorable attitudes toward breastfeeding. This scale score is named BRATT in the dataset.

The dataset also includes a variable named region which takes the following values:

1 = Northeast,
2 = Southeast,
3 = Midwest,
4 = Southwest,
5 = Rocky Mountains,
6 = West Coast.

The investigator creates a set of dummy variables and runs a linear regression model with the breastfeeding attitudes scale as the dependent variable.

The estimated model is:

BRATTi = 3.68 + 0.57NORTHEASTi – 0.13SOUTHEASTi – 0.41SOUTWESTi – 0.04ROCKIESi + 0.77WESTCOASTi + ei

According to this model, what is the mean score on the breastfeeding attitudes scale for respondents residing in the Midwest?

Because this market is a monopolistically competitive market, you can tell that it is in long-run equilibrium by the fact thatmr=mc at the optimal quantity for each firm. furthermore, a monopolistically competitive firm's average total cost in long-run equilibrium isless than the minimum average total cost. true or false: this indicates that there is a markup on marginal cost in the market for engines. true false monopolistic competition may also be socially inefficient because there are too many or too few firms in the market. the presence of the externality implies that there is too little entry of new firms in the market.
