- An introduction that defines the context of the variables (visit website for more information)
- Two (2) histograms. The first should depict spending in eastern states while the second should depict spending in western states. You may wish to group spending amounts into bins of size $1000 (or more). It is recommended you hand draw your histograms; however, histograms created online will be accepted.
- Appropriate statistics and descriptions for each display (shape, center, spread). It might be beneficial to enter your data into EXCEL to simplify these calculations.
- A conclusion that provides a well written description of the expenditures.
MAKE SURE TO INCLUDE PICTURE OF THE HISTOGRAMS CREATED!!
