Overview

In this notebook, we’ll have an opportunity to explore inference on numerical variables. Similar to our previous notebooks, I didn’t want to choose all of the contexts that we worked in this semester, so I’m providing several new options here. I have the following data sets loaded into this Posit.Cloud workspace that we could choose to investigate.

We’ll decide on our dataset and the research questions together in class. The only requirements are that we should have (i) a research question that asks about a single population proportion, and (ii) a research question that asks about a comparison of proportions across two sub-populations.

Our Data Set

We’ll decide on our data set and read it in below.

#Read in our chosen data set using this code cell...

We’ll describe our data set briefly below.

Our Research Questions and Hypotheses

We’ll define our research questions and hypotheses below.

Statistical Inference

We’ll conduct our inference here.

#We'll use this code cell (and perhaps some others) for conducting our analysis and making inference...

Summary

We’ll summarize the work we’ve done here.
