Gen 101 – Statistics Assignment
Background Information
Statisticians work with data from all sources and one of their challenges is working out what data is important. In this assignment you will complete calculations based on two sets of data to understand the data better and make predictions. Be sure to include all your calculations in your submission and to round everything to 4 decimal places unless you are reporting money.
Assignment Requirements:
Using the two datasets provided you need to complete the tasks below.
Task Weighting
