Figure 1: Boxplot of Resting Pulse of Smokers and Non-Smokers

The descriptive statistics shows that there are 64 non-smoking students and 27 smokers. The
mean of the resting pulse of smokers is slightly higher with 76 in comparison to non-smokers having
a mean of 71.938. The maximum resting pulse of smokers was 100 while that of non-smokers was 96.
The minimum resting pulse for both the group is same at 54. Further, the mean of non-smokers is
more uniform than smokers as its standard deviation is less. The plot shows that mean of the resting
pulse of non-smokers is 71.93, and that of smokers is 76.

Figure 2: Boxplot of Resting Pulse of Female and Male

The descriptive statistics shows that there are 35 female students and 59 Male students. The
mean of resting pulse of female is slightly higher with 76.857 in comparison to male having mean of

70.821. The maximum resting pulse of females was 100 while that of males was 92. The minimum
resting pulse of females was 58, and that of the males is 54. Further, the mean of the male is more
uniform than females as its standard deviation is less. The plot shows that mean of resting pulse of the
female is 76.857, and that of the male is 70.821.

Since the p-value or significant value is less than 0.05, null hypothesis gets rejected, and
alternative hypothesis gets accepted. This means there is statistically significant difference between
the mean resting pulse for men and women.
Task 3
Task 3.1

Figure 3: Boxplot for smokers/non-smokers and gender

Boxplot shows that median of pulse 1 of smoker is higher than pulse 1 of a non-smoker. Similarly,
pulse 1 of female student is higher than that of pulse 1 of male students.

Figure 5: Plot of height and weight

The plot shows that mean weight of students is 145.099 pounds and mean weight of students is
68.7253 inches. Further, the graph also shows that majority of the students weighs around 68 kgs.

Task 5.3

Figure 6: Regression Plot

The regression coefficient is coming out to be 0.61 which shows there is a strong positive
relationship between the height and weight. This can also be seen from the graph as the dots in the
graph are not scattered and are concentrated along the regression line.
Task 5.4

Instable parameters: Parameters change over time due to changes in environment

Public dissemination of the relationship
Assumptions of linear regression are often unrealistic in real world
