Obtain Summary Statistics and Create a Side-by-Side Boxplot

  • Create a side-by-side boxplot. Include a title and axis labels.
  • Create a table of the mean, standard deviation and sample size for each group.
  • Save your table and chart to copy into your analysis.

Conduct an Analysis of Variance in excel.

  • Use your option's question of interest to state the null and alternative hypotheses.
  • Use the data analysis toolpak to obtain an ANOVA table.
  • Save and show your work for your post.

Ways to show your work:

  • Use the math formula button in Canvas.
  • Take a screenshot of your excel workbook. Only the work part not the entire screen.
  • Take a screenshot of handwritten work on a tablet.
  • Neatly hand-write your formulas on paper take a picture with your phone and upload the image within your post. Image needs to .jpeg. (please no words/sentences)

Explain your analysis and Submit your Original Post

Use the "Original Post - Outline & Prompts" to Create Your Original Post

  • Use the title "Week 8 Data Analysis"
  • Use the same headers as listed below (e.g., "State and Visualize") in your post.
  • Answer each question/prompt in the bulleted list below each heading in your post.
  • For the math related questions, please show your work or excel functions you used to find your answers.

State and Visualize

  • Which option did you choose? What is this analysis about?
  • Provide a table of means, standard deviations, and sample sizes.
  • Include and describe a Side-by-side boxplot. Add a title. Add axes labels. Is there visual evidence the means differ?

Plan

  • State the null and alternative hypotheses to answer the question of interest.

**Many of the analyses do not meet conditions. For academic purposes skip checking conditions and just practice completing the analysis and reading the results.

Solve

  • Provide the ANOVA table from excel.

Conclude

Write a four-part conclusion describing the results.

  • Provide a statement in terms of the alternative hypothesis.
  • State whether (or not) to reject the null (use alpha of 0.05)
  • Include context and practical insights or plausible implications from the results of the data.
