Estimate a linear wage equation where you include education, race, gender and residence region variables and allow the effect of gender to depend on residence region. Report the results and interpret the coefficients.

The First answer is

VWXZ+VWXY+WYZ+VXY+VWZ+XYZ

The second possible answer is:

VWXZ+VWYZ+WYZ+VXY+VWZ+XYZ

Step-by-step explanation:

First we draw the k-maps for the function . There are two k-maps, one with V as zero while the other is V as 1. Then we combine the entries in power of 2. Remember that the function is given in maxterms form.Max-terms are those whose value is 0. So all the values other than max-values are either 1 or don't care. So we will keep these terms 0 and other as 1. The k-maps are attached in the files below. The essential prime implicants are those which are repeated in all the possible solutions.In this case Essential prime implicants are :

VWXZ+WYZ+VXY+VWZ+XYZ
