A) Poor (%) = -3.81 - 0.798 Single-Families (%) + 0.624 Unemployment Rate (%) - 0.170 Bachelor's Degree (%) - 0.003 High School (%)
B) Poor (%) = -3.81 + 0.798 Single-Families (%) + 0.624 Unemployment Rate (%) + 0.170 Bachelor's Degree (%) + 0.003 High School (%)
C) Poor (%) = 3.81 + 0.798 Single-Families (%) + 0.624 Unemployment Rate (%) - 0.170 Bachelor's Degree (%) - 0.003 High School (%)
D) Poor (%) = -3.81 + 0.798 Single-Families (%) + 0.624 Unemployment Rate (%) - 0.170 Bachelor's Degree (%) - 0.003 High School (%)
