● This project will demonstrate the effect sleep has on a student’s GPA. If a student
gets more hours of sleep, then their GPA will be higher than those who get less
hours. We predict a strong, positive correlation of 0.825. To gather data we will
conduct a sample survey of the DAHS student population.
Data set
● Population- is an entire group of ● Our population consists of DAHS students.
individuals.
Our explanatory variable is identified as hours of sleep, because we predict that sleep will affect GPA.
Graph
● An outlier is an individual observation that falls outside the overall pattern of the
graph. Our scatterplot does not contain any outliers.
Interpret r & r2
● A Lurking Variable that affects our data results is weather. As weather grows colder students
tend to sleep and study more because they are inside more often.
● Both of these variables are common response because it affects both the explanatory and
responsive variables.
Conclusion
● If a student gets more hours of sleep, then their GPA will be higher than those who
get less hours. We predict a strong, positive correlation of 0.825.
