Description Over a two week period, you will use mathematical operations and data analysis to solve problems and inform decision-making. This project will enable you to refresh and refine your skills in math and statistics before tackling a real world data set and using a software application or analytic tool to analyze and display the data in a way that will inform decisions. Using a process similar to the qualitative research process, you will identify an issue or problems and use mathematical formulas or an analytic tool to derive a solution. You will construct graphs, charts, and tables as necessary to inform analysis and interpretation. Communicating key mathematical information, you will evaluate the results and draw analyses and validate them. This project will enable a deeper understanding of the connection between data and how it informs solutions to practical problems with potential impact on your organization or industry. Quantitative reasoning uses a process similar to the qualitative research process in that you will first identify an issue or problem and then use mathematical formulas or an analytic tool to derive a solution. You will construct graphs, charts, and tables to display data and inform analysis and interpretation. You will evaluate the results of the information, draw analyses and validate them by applying them to the issue or problem. This project will enable you to see the connection between data and how the use of quantitative analysis of that data informs solutions to practical problems with potential impact on your organization or industry. See attached spreadsheet template With your data built, you are now ready to start using some tools to summarize the data
