Four states have been randomly assigned from the college data set
(blue worksheet/tab
) to each student.
These state assignments are
found on Sakai under Resources in the same subfolder as this file.
- Copy paste
all
the college data (rows and columns) from the Source Data Set into this spreadsheet, along with the column headings.
- There should be no spaces between states, which would be four tables; it is one data file.
- Please remember to address the Formatting of Excel results in Part 9.
This is your personal data set for this assignment. (Please see the Tutorial PPTs in Sakai under Resources under College Data Analysis.)
Backup this dataset.
Charting - Identify each state # with its 2-digit abbreviation.
Use the summary data (in yellow) for each of the charts.
