Multiple Choice

Angela Chou has been asked to investigate the determinants of poverty in Ontario communities. She collected data on 60 communities from Statistics Canada. She selected the percentage of poor persons living under the poverty line [Poor (%) ], measured by Low Income Cut-Off, designed by Statistics Canada as a measure of poverty for a community, as the dependent variable. The independent variables selected are percent of single families in each community, the unemployment rate in each community, percent of population in the community holding a bachelor's degree as their highest level of education attained, and percent of population holding a High School Diploma as their highest level of education attained. Using the outputs below for this data set, determine whether Angela should use the model with the high school data included, or the data without the high school data, and why.
