Question

Hello, Please help me navigate this because I don't even know how to
start answering these questions based on the graph attached. Thanks
1.) Estimate the equation of the line.

2.) Use the slope of the line in a meaningful sentence or two.

3.) What observations can you interpret from the graph?

4.) A recent survey found that in a particular city of all poor children born in 1980, 11,500 enrolled in college, and 1024 graduated from college by age 24. Scale this rate to 100.

5.) From the information in the article, in a town consisting of 2,300 rich students born in 1980, how many would you expect to graduate college by the age of 24? Use the 95th percent income percentile as constituting rich (note: what % of children attend college based upon the parents 95th income percentile). Scale this rate to 100.

6.) From a random sample: Out 1,000 rich kids born in 1980, how many will attend college and how many will graduate from college by the age of 24?
