Part A—Use Excel to create charts.

Create the following four charts:
A1- Line graph
A2- Pie Chart
A3- Bar Graph
A4- Scatter Diagram

length of time it took for a rat to get through a maze on
each of 5 days. create a line graph for the data.

categories—A, B, C, and D—and the number of people
who fall into each category is shown in the table:

measured for six households in a local area.
create a scatterplot of these six data points.

Part B— Use Excel calculate statistics.
Use Excel to calculate statistics for a small quantitative data set (about 15 observations). This could one of the data sets used above.
Have Excel calculate the following statistics for this data set:
B1- Minimum, maximum and range
B2- Q1, median, Q3, and Inner-Quartile Range
B3- mean, variance (sample or population depending on data) and standard deviation (sample or population depending on data)

A drug company
wishes to know if an experimental drug being
tested in its laboratories has any effect on systolic
blood pressure. Fifteen randomly selected subjects were
given the drug, and their systolic blood pressures (in
millimeters) are recorded.

y is the selling price of the property

C2 I would consider the selling price of the residential property ,y , as the dependant variable and
x, square feet of living space, to be the ndependent variable

C5 0.923445084284
this correlation coefficient indicates that there is a strong, positive relationship between the living space and selling price of the residences.

The equation
Y = -4.6097 +0.1949X

Interpretation
C8 the slope for X
b = 0.1949
this can be interpreted as , for a one unit increase in living space of a residence the selling price of the property increases by 0.1949.

C9 R-Squared =0.8526
This means that 85.26% of the variabilty in selling price of residential properties can be xplained by the variability in living space, hence the model is a good fit.

C10 t value for X

t = 7.61
t= 7.61 suggests that living space of a residence is significant in predicting the selling price of a residential property
the p value also shows the variable is significant.

C11 Yes, all the three statistics suggest there is a significant linear relationship between the two variables.
