2. Which of the following variables appear to be linearly related to the years of education
completed at the .10 significance level?
3. How much of the variation in the dependent variable is explained by variation in the
explanatory variables? 4. Senator Key believes the further a student has to travel from their high school to attend
college, the less education they will obtain. He thinks the problem is that many students
live too far away from a 4 year university and education levels would be higher if the
state built more college campuses in areas that currently do not have a nearby campus.
Does this analysis provide evidence to support Senator Key’s hypothesis at the .10
significance level?
5. How would you interpret the coefficient on Test?
a. Students with test scores in the top 8% were most likely to attend college
b. Doing well on the test improves the likelihood of graduating from college by .08.
