3 BUS 308 Education for Service-- snaptutorial.com BUS 308 Week 1 DQ 1 Data Scales For more classes visit www.snaptutorial.com Week 1 Data Scales. A marketing agency is interested in the buying habits of those who shop online versus those who shop in person. In your discussion post, address each of the following and explain your reasoning as to why you picked the specific scale:

If the number of units assembled by each shift varies greatly from day to day, what impact will that have on the likelihood of a significant difference between the two shifts? Explain and support your response.

Question : How is the sum of squares unlike either the standard deviation or the variance? 2. Question : If sums of squares statistics are calculated for shoppers at three different retail outlets, what statistic will indicate the variability among those at each outlet?

The mean monthly sales for all retailers in the chain are $59,844. Is this hardware retailer’s sale significantly different from all retailers in the chain at? Are they significantly different at? Calculate a.95 confidence interval for the data in problem.

The correlation between the two is (the longer they have owned their present vehicles, the more quickly they are expected to replace them). The other relevant data are as follows for 32 customers:

21 BUS 308 Education for Service-- snaptutorial.com BUS 308 Week 5 Final Paper For more classes visit www.snaptutorial.com Writing the Final Paper Assignment Instructions: A retail store has recently hired you as a consultant to advise on economic conditions. One important indicator that the retail store is concerned about is the unemployment rate. The retail store has found that an increase in the unemployment rate will cause a lack of consumer spending in their stores. Retail stores use the unemployment rate to estimate how much inventory to keep at their stores, which is important in maintaining cost effectiveness. In this consultant role you will apply calculations and research to create a predictive sales report.
