Expand Your Knowledge: Dotplot another display technique that is somewhat similar to histogram is dotplot. In a dotplot, the data values are displayed along the horizontal axis A dot is then plotted over each data value in the data set.
(a) Form the dotplot, how many states have 600 or fewer licensed drivers per 1000 residents?
(b) About what percentage of the states (out of 51) seem to have close to 800 licensed drivers per 1000 residents?
(c) Consider the intervals 550 to 650, 650 to 750, and 750 to 850 licensed drivers per 1000 residents. In which interval do most of the states fall?

- Hi, I need to make sure I have drafted a thorough analysis, so please answer the following questions. Based on the data in the attached image, develop a regression model to forecast the average sales of football magazines for each of the seven home games in the upcoming season (Year 10). That is, you should construct a single regression model and use it to estimate the average demand for the seven home games in Year 10. In addition to the variables provided, you may create new variables based on these variables or based on observations of your analysis. Be sure to provide a thorough analysis of your final model (residual diagnostics) and provide assessments of its accuracy. What insights are available based on your regression model?arrow_forwardI want to make sure that I included all possible variables and observations. There is a considerable amount of data in the images below, but not all of it may be useful for your purposes. Are there variables contained in the file that you would exclude from a forecast model to determine football magazine sales in Year 10? If so, why? Are there particular observations of football magazine sales from previous years that you would exclude from your forecasting model? If so, why?arrow_forwardStat questionsarrow_forward
