Simultaneously, inflation, education level, and labor force participation rate significantly affect the poverty rate. The adjusted R-squared of 0.810563 indicates that 81.05 percent of the variation in poverty is explained by the three independent variables, while the remaining 18.95 percent is explained by other factors outside the model.]]>
