approach to analyze statistical data using a variety of techniques out of which many are graphical analyses. EDA is used to dissect the data and look for the hidden patterns and correlations. Some of the graphical methods include pie charts, bar graphs, histograms, frequency and relative frequency tables, box plot, scatter graph, stem-leaf diagram etc. There are also quantitative measures of data which include central tendencies like mean and median, measure of dispersion like standard deviation,

created by Nutrition Quest is a very efficient method used to assess daily folate intake. The objective of this study is to test whether or not a dietary folate equivalent screener can be used in supplementary of the food frequency questionnaire. The correlation between the food frequency questionnaire and the dietary folate equivalent screener for total folate intake (r = .70) were correlated but statistically insignificant (p < 0.05). However analysis of previous studies suggests that food frequency

type, sales numbers, store size and the competitive types. The amount of sales and selling square feet variables are given in thousands of dollars. Results and Discussions In analyzing the data on the 250 Pam and Susan’s stores, we first created a scatter plot of the competitive types in the horizontal axis against sales (in thousands) on the vertical axis. The competitive types were identified as follows: * Type 1- Densely populated area with relatively little direct competition. * Type 2 –High

dollars for four years. Therefore, the recorded quarterly sales for the Norton Company were referenced and included 16 quarters total. A scatter plot was graphed showing the recorded sales for the 16 quarters. The following equation was obtained from the historical data: y = 0.461x + 4.2 with the R² of 0.1695 and a R of 0.412. R is the coefficient of correlation, which provides the strength and direction of a linear relationship. R2 is the coefficient of determination, which measures the amount
