3. The University Secretary wants to determine how University grade point average, GPA (highest being 4.0) of a sample of students from the University depends on a student's high school GPA (HS), age of a student (A), achievement test score (AS), average number of lectures skipped each week (S). gender of a student (where M=l if a student is male or 0 otherwise), computer or PC ownership of a student (where PC=l if a student owns a computer or otherwise), the means of transport to school (drive, bicycle or walk; where D=l if a student drives to campus or otherwise, B=l if a student bicycles to campus or 0 otherwise), and finally, the subject major of the student (finance, human resource, marketing and accounting; where F=l if a student majors in finance or otherwise, HR=l if a student majors in human resource or otherwise. MR=1 if a student majors in marketing or 0 otherwise). Use the correlation matrix and dummy regression output to answer the + questions.

A and B. of the same age of 20, same achievement test score, same average number of lectures skipped, same gender, both own a PC, both drive, and both major in the same subject, but Student A's high school GPA score is 2.5 points higher.
