Analyze the regression below (n = 50 U.S. states) using the concepts you have learned about multiple regression. Circle things of interest and write comments in the margin. Make a prediction for Poverty for a state with Dropout = 15, TeenMom = 12, Unem = 4, and Age65% = 12 (show your work). The variables are Poverty = percentage below the poverty level; Dropout = percentage of adult population that did not finish high school; TeenMom = percentage of total births by teenage mothers; Unem = unemployment rate, civilian labor force; and Age65% = percentage of population aged 65 and over.
