2.106 Full-time and part-time college students. The Census Bureau provides estimates of numbers of people in the United States classified in various ways.20 Let's look at college students. The following table gives us data to examine the relation between age and full-time or part-time status. The numbers in the table are expressed as thousands of U.S. college students. Im COLSTUD Status Age Full-time Part-time 15–19 3388 389 20-24 5238 1164 25–34 1703 1699 35 and over 762 2045 (a) Find the distribution of age for full-time students. (b) Do the same for the part-time students.
Correlation
Correlation defines a relationship between two independent variables. It tells the degree to which variables move in relation to each other. When two sets of data are related to each other, there is a correlation between them.
Linear Correlation
A correlation is used to determine the relationships between numerical and categorical variables. In other words, it is an indicator of how things are connected to one another. The correlation analysis is the study of how variables are related.
Regression Analysis
Regression analysis is a statistical method in which it estimates the relationship between a dependent variable and one or more independent variable. In simple terms dependent variable is called as outcome variable and independent variable is called as predictors. Regression analysis is one of the methods to find the trends in data. The independent variable used in Regression analysis is named Predictor variable. It offers data of an associated dependent variable regarding a particular outcome.
c. Use the summaries in parts (a) and (b) to describe the relationship between full- or part-time status and age. Write a brief summary of your conclusions.
