Graduates (%) Median Income ($ 1000) 61.7 47.6 50.9 34.1 57.1 56.4 42.8 42.1 33.2 19.2 31.5 41.3 34.5 28.1 23.1 20.4 Use two-decimal places in your answers. 4 (a) State the slope term and the Y-intercept term of the least squares regression line which attempts to predict the median income of a town in Alberta based on its linear relationship with the percentage of residents who are university graduates. (b) Find the correlation coefficient. (c) As the percenage of university graduates increases by 10%, the median income will change (in $ 1000s) by (make sure you include the positive or negative sign) (d) What percentage of the variation in the variable Median Income is not explained by its linear relationship to the variable Percentage of University Graduates?
