I selected
a 2oz bag of
Skittles from a store by my
house and separated them
into their different colors. I
then counted each color and
the total amount of Skittles to
get the data for my table and
graph. This is a cluster
sample because from a
population of candy I chose
the cluster of Skittles for my
data.

For this sample, I went around to a group of

people who I know and matched their right
hands with their left hands and kept track of
whether or not they caught it. This is a Matched
Pair Design because I was matching their right
and left hands to each other.

Independent Study

The data collected was simply how long it took for 9 people of differing ages to
complete a 24 piece puzzle. They were asked to do it twice. Between 100-149
seconds was the most common time, with most improving the second try.

What was more interesting was

comparing the age of the person to
their puzzle time. The scatter plot
implies there is no correlation but
the line graph looks like there
might be a relationship of older
individuals overall having a longer
puzzle solving time.
