To measure the efforts of high-priced public and private colleges and universities to create more economically diverse student bodies, the NY Times calculated a College Access Index, based on the percentage of freshmen in recent years who came from low-income families (measured by the share receiving a Pell grant) and on the net price of attendance for low-income and middle-income families.
The variables in the above Excel file used by the NY Times to calculate the College Access Index are as follows:
- Pell (2012 - 2016) is the average percentage of the freshman class that received a Pell grant in 2012-13, 2013-14, 2014-15, and 2015-16, multiplied by the 5-year graduation rate for recent Pell recipients.
- Net price low-to-middle income is the average total cost of attendance in 2015-16, including tuition, fees, room and board, after taking into account federal, state and institutional financial aid, for students who come from households earning between $48,000 and $75,000 a year and qualifying for federal aid.
- Endowment per student is for the year 2012-13 and includes graduate students.
- The College Access Index is a combination of i) net price and ii) a college's Pell graduates, compared with the average school.
A college with an average score on the two measures in combination has a College Access Index of one. Scores above one indicate more access.
1) Using the College Access Index as the explanatory variable and Net price, low-to-middle income as the response variable, find the slope and intercept of the least squares line.
2) What is the approximate residual for Duke?
