Objective

The objective of this tutorial is to explain how bivariate analysis works.This analysis can be used by marketers to make decisions about their pricing strategies, advertising strategies, and promotion stratgies among others.

Bivariate analysis is one of the simplest forms of statistical analysis. It is generally used to find out if there is a relationship between two sets of values (or two variables). That said, it usually involves the variables X and Y (statisticshowto.com).

Dataset - We will be using two online datasets available in R for this tutorial

plot(y3 ~ x2, data = anscombe, pch = 16)
abline(lm(y3 ~ x3, anscombe), col = "grey20")

Question 1:is there a relationship between x and y? If so, what does the relationship look like?

Yes, it is linear that is increasing and going up which is a positive.

library(readr)
library(readr)
ad_sales <- read_csv('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/utjimmyx/regression/master/advertising.csv')
## New names:
## Rows: 200 Columns: 6
## ── Column specification
## ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Delimiter: "," dbl
## (6): ...1, X1, TV, radio, newspaper, sales
## ℹ Use `spec()` to retrieve the full column specification for this data. ℹ
## Specify the column types or set `show_col_types = FALSE` to quiet this message.
## • `` -> `...1`
plot(sales ~ TV, data = ad_sales)

install.packages(“readr”)

Question 2:Is there a relationship between TV advertising and Sales? If so, what does the relationship look like?

Yes, there is a positive relationship between TV afvertising and sales.

Question 3:Can you plot the relationship between radio advertising and Sales? If so, what does the relationship look like?

plot(sales ~ radio, data = ad_sales)

The relationship between radio ads and sales is positive, but it is weaker.

###Question 4:Three things you learned from this tutorial ### I learned how to run plots on this upper area of r studio, Bivariate Analysis it’s a key tool for marketers trying to understand how one factor (like TV advertising) affects another (like product sales), and I create scatter plots.

# Build a multiple regression model
model <- lm(sales ~ TV + radio, data = ad_sales)

# View the results
summary(model)
## 
## Call:
## lm(formula = sales ~ TV + radio, data = ad_sales)
## 
## Residuals:
##     Min      1Q  Median      3Q     Max 
## -8.7977 -0.8752  0.2422  1.1708  2.8328

## Coefficients:
##             Estimate Std. Error t value Pr(>|t|)    
## (Intercept)  2.92110    0.29449   9.919   <2e-16 ***
## TV           0.04575    0.00139  32.909   <2e-16 ***
## radio        0.18799    0.00804  23.382   <2e-16 ***

## Signif. codes:  0 '***' 0.001 '**' 0.01 '*' 0.05 '.' 0.1 ' ' 1

## Residual standard error: 1.681 on 197 degrees of freedom
## Multiple R-squared:  0.8972, Adjusted R-squared:  0.8962 
## F-statistic: 859.6 on 2 and 197 DF,  p-value: < 2.2e-16
