Kallie Coughlin, owner of Flower Power, operates a local chain of floral shops. Each shop has its own delivery van. Instead of charging a flat delivery fee, Coughlin wants to set the delivery fee based on the distance driven to deliver the flowers. Coughlin wants to separate the fixed and variable portions of her van operating costs so that she has a better idea how delivery distance affects these costs. She has the following data from the past seven months: Requirements 1. Prepare a scatter plot of Flower Power's volume (miles driven) and van operating costs. 2. Does the data appear to contain any outliers? Explain. 3. How strong of a relationship is there between miles driven and van operating costs? Requirement 1. Prepare a scatter plot of Flower Power's volume (miles driven) and van operating costs. Plot the points on the graph now. (Enlarge the graph and use the point tool button displayed below to draw the graph.) Relationship of Van Operating Costs to Miles Driven 13,000 14,000 15,000 16,000 17,000 18,000 19,000 $4,000 $4,100 $4,200 $4,300 $4,400 $4,500 $4,600 $4,700 $4,800 $4,900 $5,000 $5,100 $5,200 $5,300 $5,400 $5,500 $5,600 $5,700 $5,800 $5,900 $6,000 $6,100 $6,200 $4,000 $6,200 Miles driven Van operating cost interactive graph Requirement 2. Does the data appear to contain any outliers? Explain. The data appears does not appear to contain outliers. All data points fall in a random pattern. the same general pattern. the same general pattern with the exception of one month. Requirement 3. How strong of a relationship is there between miles driven and van operating expenses? There appears to be a very strong a very weak no relationship between van operating costs and miles driven. We can tell this because the data points fall in a curved line fairly tight, linear pattern horizontal line random pattern .
