Chapter 8 Bivariate Data Analysis
8.1 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).
- Univariate analysis is the analysis of one (“uni”) variable.
- Bivariate analysis is the analysis of exactly two variables.
- Multivariate analysis is the analysis of more than two variables.
8.2 Dataset - We will be using two online datasets available in R for this tutorial
### Question 1:is there a relationship between x and y? If so, how does the relationship look like?

ad_sales <- read_csv('https://raw.githubusercontent.com/utjimmyx/regression/master/advertising.csv')## Warning: Missing column names filled in: 'X1' [1]## Warning: Duplicated column names deduplicated: 'X1' => 'X1_1' [2]## Parsed with column specification:
## cols(
## X1 = col_double(),
## X1_1 = col_double(),
## TV = col_double(),
## radio = col_double(),
## newspaper = col_double(),
## sales = col_double()
## )
