Column (2) displays regression results of the form Hours = 0 1MW 2MW2 (other controls) for men where Hours is usual hours worked per week and MW is the prevailing minimum wage (this varies by state and time). Column (1) is the same regression, but does not include M W 2 . Columns (3) and (4) are regressions (1) and (2) but for only women. Which of A. B. C. D. E. the following is true: (5 points) Regressions (1)-(4) suggest minimum wage will always increase Hours. Regressions (2) and (4) suggest minimum wage can be raised higher for men than for women before the effect of minimum wage on Hours becomes negative A $1 increase in minimum wage will increase weekly hours worked for men by 4.13 hours, on average and holding other controls constant. Regressions (1) and (2) suggest increased minimum wage has a negative effect on Hours. Including MW2 will create perfect multicollinearity since MW is already in- cluded in the regression
