SCATTERPLOT WITH TREND LINE

The y axis show the number of tires purchased while the x axis shows the year of purchase.

The graph shows the numbers of tire purchased in a given year. The trend line shows the linear model that relates the year and the number of tires purchased. The equation of the trend line is:

y=-442.2x+899919. X is the year and y is the tires purchased. For example, in the year 1995, x=1995

The value of R2 shows the proportion of the variability in tires purchased that can be explained by the year of the purchase. In this case, R2= 0.3593.

Prediction for the number of tires purchased in 2018 based on the model above:

y=-442.2(2018) +899919

= 7559.4 tires or 7559 tires. Since the value of R2= 0.3593, I am a little confident that this will be the actual data because of the low value of R2.

2. PIE CHART

The pie chart above shows the figures of tires purchases and their associated percentages. It helps to visualize the data. It is generated from Excel.

3. COLUMN CHART

The y axis shows the tires purchased while the x axis shows the year starting from 1.

The visual above shows the relationship between tires purchased from year 1(or 1996) to year 20(or 2015). It clearly shows that there were more tires purchased in the first years compared to the last years.

4. We use the AVERAGE function in Excel to calculate the mean of the data.

From Excel, the mean of the tires purchased was 13084.

The mean of the wheels purchased was 12678

The mean of the lugnuts purchased was 9417.
