Description

chp7 chp9

  • Chapter number: 7 & 9

  • Other location identifier, if any (e.g., figure number, table number, footnote number, etc.):

table 7.4 and page 139, footnote 3

  • Original text:

I think the footnote is for this text:

How much larger of an interest rate would we expect for a borrower who has
verified their income source and amount vs a borrower whose income source has only
been verified?3

  • Suggestion for corrected text:
    Table 7.4, the value in the table should be 42.87, i.e. not rounded, given the text that follows?
    On page 139, footnote 3 (???), the answer should be the difference between the two rates, right?

  • Justification for suggestion: typo / better format to connect narrative

Hello,
Reg. Introduction to Modern Statistics, 2024.
On page 121, table 7.4, the value in the table should be 42.87, i.e. not rounded, given the text that follows?
On page 139, footnote 3, the answer should be the difference between the two rates, right?
Kind regards, Anders
