Part A – Simple Linear Regression Analysis
(a) Expectation
Ŷi = β0 + β1xi + βi
Where Ŷ =Amount of money the state spends on aid to local school districts per capita (AIDPC)
Xi= State Income per capita (INCOMEPC)
In general, we expect the increase of state Income per capita make the state spends more money on aid to local school districts per capita. Therefore, we expect β1>0.
(b)Estimate the regression model Coefficients Standard Error t Stat
Intercept
-0.499260665
1.475737675
-0.33831261
INCOMEPC
0.053681383
0.044917266
1.195116879 Chart A.1
As the information demonstrated in Table A.1, we can estimated the regression model as Ŷ = -0.4993+0.0537X.
Where Ŷ =Amount of money the state spends on aid to local school districts per capita (AIDPC) as dependant variable; and Xi= State

    Spending at one school can make a huge difference on the quality of education than from another school. The school spending difference is often significant because teacher’s salaries are based on their experience and approval or college degrees they might have earned. Low poverty schools have more experienced and higher paid teachers, than a high poverty school where the teachers can be inexperienced, low salaries and a high turn over rate. Research in Baltimore found teacher’s at one school in a high poverty neighborhood were paid on average $36,600 a year, where at another school in the same district the average teacher’s salary was $57,000 a year in a low poverty neighborhood. If both schools have twenty teachers the difference in dollars available for the two schools is over $400,000 a year. Think about how much equipment, supplies, and higher quality teachers that much money can provide for a school. School funding in most states is tied to the wealth of the neighborhood. Communities and students that are at an economic disadvantage often need the most help and are unable to receive the quality of education provided by other schools. Every state across the country needs to expand school funding improvements to ensure that every student gets the highest quality education no matter what school district or neighborhood they happen to live…

    When it comes to education, many people believe that increased levels of per-pupil spending are positively correlated with higher overall student outcomes. Upon comparison of five various Ohio school districts, ranging from rural to city settings, it is clear that this belief is not always the case and just because a certain school district pays more per-pupil does not mean that the educational outcomes will necessarily be higher. After taking data from miscellaneous aspects of each district, such as the number of state indicators and the performance index scores and comparing them to the instructional and total expenditures per-pupil, it is clear that while money does play a large part, there are other factors at work here. When doing this comparison the number of state indicators, which is the number given out based on the percentage of students who received a proficient score on a state assessment, and the performance index score, which is the weighted average of each student’s academic achievements during the academic year, including tested and untested subjects, were extracted from the Ohio Department of Education’s 2010-2011 reports and compared to the districts spending on each student in various ways. What has been found by comparing this data is that while the higher achieving districts, such as Beachwood, did tend to spend quite a large amount of money per-pupil those districts that were essentially failing, such as Cleveland, also spent quite a large amount of money, so one cannot definitively say that spending more money automatically means a school district will increase its odds of obtaining higher educational outcomes.…

It can say that many people are using it everyday, like save money, and draw money or some transaction money, so the how to avoid and reduce the risk of ATM become more important than others activity, recently, the crime about the ATM increase rapidly, like copy the card information to steal money at ATM, cash trapping and other ATM scam were cost £29.3million last year in the UK (Emma Reynolds, 2012).

The Automatic Teller Machine (ATM) in 1967s and becomes the most important equipment in people’s life after 40 years, there are about 403,000 ATMs in the U.S (Katharine Gammon, 2009).
