Study Notes
Campground Bookings Trend Analysis
- Data reveals campsite rental patterns over several years, specifically focusing on the week of July 4th.
- Records indicate years (2002-2010) and the corresponding number of campsites rented.
- To predict 2020 rentals, a line of best fit equation will be essential.
Calculating the Line of Best Fit
- A line of best fit equation can be determined using the provided data (e.g. year versus number of campsites rented).
- The calculation would use statistical methods (least squares) to find the equation for a line that minimizes the differences between the observed and predicted values.
- This equation will provide a mathematical model to understand trends and predict future values.
Predicting Campsite Rentals in 2020
- The line of best fit (equation) is critical for this prediction.
- Once generated, substitute 2020 into the equation's year variable to get predicted campsite rentals.
- There is no equation provided in the data and, hence, a prediction is impossible.
