At the end of the semester the lecturer runs a regression using the student's final grade as the dependent variable and a male dummy (equals one if the student is male and equals zero otherwise) as the sole explanatory variable.
If the estimated intercept is 64 and the estimated coefficient on the male dummy is 0 then what is the estimated mean mark for males in this course?

O When the number of deliveries is constant, the average change in travel time associated with a ten-mile (i.e. one unit) increase in distance traveled is 0.060 hours. O The total daily travel time increases by 0.060 hours when the distance traveled increases by 1. O When the number of deliveries is held fixed, the average change in travel time associated with a one-mile (i.e. one unit) increase in distance traveled is 0.060 hours.
