1) State the explanatory and response variable

2) Create a scatterplot for your explanatory and response(make sure to properly label the plot)

3) Calculate the descriptive statistics (use appropriate units)

a) mean of household members and garbage total

b) Standard deviation of each

4) Calculate the strength of the linear relationship by calculating r

5) If the critical value is r=0.498 what is your conclusion about the relationship between number in household and the total garbage?

6) Find the equation of the least squares regression line.

7) Predict the expected trash weight for the week for a household of 9.
