5. What is the most appropriate chart when showing a relationship between two variables (according to Exhibit 4-8)?

6. Refer to the graphic associated with the opening vignette regarding the 2016 presidential election. Indicate which of the following would be effective alternative presentations of the data to communicate voter outcome, and which would not be.

 

 

 

 

	Communication Alternative Effective? Frequency distribution of states based on the number of letters in each state's name   Box and whisker plot showing the margin difference   Scatterplot showing the relationship between expected margin and actual margin   Line graph showing the number of voters in each state   List of states in descending order of margin

Data

• Lab 4-2 Slainte Subset

After completing step 10 in part 3, Which Product_Code sold the most?

2004

After completing step 10 in part 3, How much did Product_Codes 2002 and 2004 sell, respectively?

 

 

 

 

After completing step 19, Which product(s) sold the most in 2019 and 2020?

 

 

 

 

 

 

(Hint: Steps 29 and 30) After completing steps 29 and 30, glance at the filled map to determine which three states appear to be the lowest performers in terms of total products sold?

 

 

 

By hovering over the states in the filled map, you can view the total products sold in each state. You can also add labels to the map, if you'd prefer. Input the number of products sold for each state.

 

	State Product Sold Arkansas   Iowa   Kansas   Louisiana   Missouri   Nebraska   Oklahoma   Tennessee   Texas

Data

The data for this lab and all other Dillard's labs must be accessed through the University of Arkansas Remote Desktop. Documentation on how to connect and log in to the remote desktop can be found below by operating system. Contact your course instructor for the specific login credentials. The 2016 Dillard's data cover all transaction over the period 1/1/2014 to 10/17/2016.

After completing Lab parts 1 and 2, complete the following requirements.

 

Required:

1-a. Which state had the highest average transaction amount?

1-b. What is the average transaction amount in New York? (Either hover over the state to see the number, or turn on labels to view the amounts associated with each state). (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

 

 

13. After completing Lab parts 3 and 4, complete the following requirements.

 

Required:

2-a. Which City has the highest average transaction amount? (It can be easier to answer this question if you sort the data. Clicking the "sort" button will re-order the bars so that the city with the highest average transaction amount will be the first bar listed).

 

2-b. In the Deptcent "Childrens," which Deptdec is associated with the lowest average transaction amount?

 

 

2-c. What is the average transaction amount associated with Junior Dresses? (either hover over the bars to see the number, or turn on labels to view the average transaction associated with each bar). (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)
