Question
Using US Census data, a researcher compared home prices (in thousands of dollars) in the same
102 Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAS) between 2004 and 2006. Her hypothesis is that the
2006 prices will be less than the 2004 prices due to the collapse of the “bubble" in the housing
market in 2005. The result of the analysis in Data Analysis is shown below:
