The variable "Cost" represents the four-year cost including tuition, supplies, room and board of attending the school. The variable "Annual ROI" represents the return on investment for graduates of the school. It essentially represents how much you would earn on the investment of attending the school. The variable "Grad Rate" represents the graduation rate of the school. Complete parts (a) and (b) below. Click here to view the school data.
