In this assignment, you develop two purpose statements using the same data set (different purposes, same data) and will use regression and two sample hypothesis testing to analyze the same set of data. For example, you may want to determine if there is a relationship between the amount of space product to a product on shelves and sales volume. Your independent variable (the one that isn't changed by anything) is shelving space. Your dependent variable (the one that is changed by the independent variable) is sales volume. Using regression, you would hope to be able to conclude something similar to this: " As shelving space increases, sales volume increases." Or, it could be worded the other way around. The point is there is a relationship, either positive or negative. Then, you'll use regression or something similar to determine if the relationship is significant - meaning that you can predict the results will be similar if tested in another environment and that your test wasn't a fluke! You'll do the same for the T-test, that is, you will split the data into two groups (you decide the groups and run a two sample T-test)
