1. Identify Study Components.
Identify the observational units and variable of interest. Is the variable quantitative or categorical? Which graphs and numbers might you use to compare these two species?
Solution.
Observation units = 56 elephants, Variable = How many km did the elephant walk per day? This is a quantitative variable. We could look at dotplots, boxplots, histograms, means/SDs, five number summaries in order to compare the walking distances.
