Problem 2.5: The scores of 15 respondents on four variables are as reported here. These scores were taken from a public-opinion survey called the General Social Survey (GSS), the data set used for the computer exercises in this text. For the actual questions, see Appendix G. The numerical codes for the variables are as follows:

Sex	Support for Gun Control	Level of Education	Age
1 = Male 2 = Female	1 = in favor 2 = Opposed	0 = Less than HS 1 = HS 2 = Jr. college 3 = Bachelor’s 4 = Graduate	Actual years

Case Number	Gender	Support for Gun	Level of Education	Age
1	2	1	1	45
2	1	2	1	48
3	2	1	3	55
4	1	1	2	32
5	2	1	3	33
6	1	1	1	28
7	2	2	0	77
8	1	1	1	50
