12. A sociologist hypothesizes that the crime rate is higher in areas
with higher poverty rate and lower median income. She col-
lects data on the crime rate (crimes per 100,000 residents),
the poverty rate (in %), and the median income (in $1,000s)
from 41 New England cities. A portion of the regression results
is shown in the following table.
