variables: Variable X1 (number of full-time student) is asymmetric and skewed to the right Variables which have values higher than 126 (number of student) account for more - proportion and the data is scattered in the box graph Variable X2 (tuition of indegenous student) is quite symmetric but still skewed a little to the right Variables which have values higher than 11,513 ($) account for more proportion - and the data is scattered in the box graph Variable X3 (tuition of foreign student) is not symmetric and skewed to the left Variables which have values smaller than 17,765 ($) account more and the data is scattered in the - box Variable X4 (average age of student) is not symmetric but skewed to the left Variables which have values smaller than 29 (age) account more and data is scattered in the box graph - Variable X5 (proportion of foreign student) is distributed symmetrically, but quite skewed to the left Variables which have values smaller than 27 (%) account more and the data is - scattered in the box graph Variable Y (starting salary) is asymmetric and skewed to the left Variables which have value smaller than 41,400 ($) account more and the data is scattered in the box Find confidence interval for the rate of courses which require GMAT and English test Using MegaStat/Hypothesis Tests/Compare Two Independent Proportions, we have the followed result: Hypothesis test for two independent proportions p1 p2 pc 0.56 0.32 0.44 p (as decimal) 14/25 8/25 22/50 p (as fraction) 14 22 X 25 25 50 n 0.24 0.1404 1.71 0874 difference hypothesized difference std error z p-value (two-tailed) -0.027 confidence interval 95.% lower 0.507 confidence interval 95.% upper 0.267 margin of error Conclusion: Confidence interval for courses which require GMAT and english test is from -0.027 to 0.507 4 Find confidence interval for average starting salary of MBA graduates from these courses Using MegaStat/Descriptive Statistics, we have followed resutl: Descriptive statistics Starting Salary ($) count 25 mean 37,292.00 sample variance 550,336,600.00 sample standard deviation 23,459.25 minimum 7000 maximum 87000 range 80000 confidence interval 95.% lower 27,608.50 confidence interval 95.% upper 46,975.50 half-width 9,683.50 Conclusion: Confidence interval for average starting salary of MBA graduates from these courses is from 27,608.50 to 46,975.50 Test the hypothesis about the equation of average tuition between foreign and indigenous students Using MegaStat/Hypothesis Tests/Paired Observations, we have the followed result : Hypothesis Test: Paired Observations 0.000 hypothesized value 12,374.920 mean Local Tuition ($) 16,581.800 mean Foreign Tuition ($) -4,206.880 mean difference (Local Tuition ($) -

The sign of regression coefficient is suitable with your expectation?
