Therefore in 2015 approximately 4.2 million people lived in Alberta.

Part B Solution:
Just like in a previous step, first we need to find out just how much of the pie graph
Quebecs population sector is taking up. It can be seen from the screen shot below that
the Quebec sector on the pie graph measures approximately 83.
This time we were provided with a total population number for this pie graph. (50 million)
Lets figure out how much of the percentage of the total population Quebec is taking.
83 360=0.231 (or approximately 23.1 % of the pie graph)
50 000 000 0.231=11 550 000

Part B Solution:
I simply used GeoGebras built in tools to determine the linear regression equation and
correlation coefficient from the scatter plot created in the previous step.
Linear regression equation is
y=0.4 x 6.71

Part C Solution:
The correlation in this data is positive, this can be concluded in three ways. First looking
at the regression line we can easily see that the slope is positive (left side of the line is
lower than the right side of the line).
Second looking at the set of data points we can also easily conclude that an increase in
one variable also causes an increase in the other variable (When more rain falls there is
more runoff).
Finally, the correlation coefficient value itself is positive.
The correlation is strong because all the data points lie very close to the regression line
and the correlation coefficient value is very close 1.
Part D Solution:
A good prediction of the runoff would simply be to use the regression line equation that
was derived from the given data points. In this case the independent variable is the
amount of rainfall which we can substitute for x in the regression line equation.
y=0.4 x 6.71
y =( 0.4 )( 300 )6.71
y =113.29
Therefore, with the data provided we can predict if 300 mm of rain fell the approximate
runoff would be about 113 mm.

Part E Solution:
Given that outliers are data points that lie very far off the regression line I would
definitely consider this new storm data point as an outlier. This new points residual
would be much larger (negatively or downwards from the regression line) than all the
previous data points that were collected.
It is entirely possible in this specific incident the data was recorded incorrectly (human
error) or the measurement device itself is in need of maintenance or replacement. The
measurement device could have incurred damage due to the passing storm or simply
due to its age lost its accuracy.
