Question 1. (a) R²= 4.33% of the variation in the dependent variable RET is explained by the variation of the independent variables: GRI, SAT, TEN, Age, and MBA. We cannot assume from the low R squared that the model is useless because there might be one or more independent variables that are not significant to the dependent variable. Also, we cannot question the fact that the OLS are not accurate just by looking at the low R squared. In the opposite, adding new independent variables do increase

estimate is discussed along with the notion that as each sample changes in all likelihood so will the point estimate. From this, the student can see that an interval estimate may be more usable as a one-time proposition than the point estimate. The confidence interval formulas for large sample means and proportions can be presented as mere algebraic manipulations of formulas developed in chapter 7 from the Central Limit Theorem. It is very important that students begin to understand the difference
