*Measured in Billions*

Coke and Pepsi Sales from the Last 5 Years

i. Trend statement for total sales of Pepsi products in the

last 5 years.

As you can see over the last 5 years Pepsi Co. has been quiet profitable. They have generally stayed with in the same range of revenue and total sales.

j. Trend statement for total sales of Coke products in the

last 5 years.

As you can see in the last 5 years Coco Cola Co. has not been consistent. Even though they have not had the profitable out come like Pepsi, they are maintain a consistent revenue and total sales income.

k. Prediction of average sales of Coke and Pepsi in the year

2017.

By 2017 I think that coke will have gradually increased from where they are now, but Pepsi however I believe will have gained a few more billions. Seeing as how they have jumped a few billions in the last 5 years. I think Pepsi is a growing product that everyone seems to enjoy.

2. Bar GraphThis graph represents the Number of Boys vs. Girls, Taste Test who

correctly choose/guessed Product A and Product B.

c. Does gender affect how you taste?

Based on the data and information collected from our class, I don’t believe that gender can determine the way you taste things.

There were a total of 21 people in our class. 7 females and 14 males.

If you look at the data table on the previous slides you would notice that 4 out of 7 girls and 11 out of 14 boys guessed correctly. The difference between the two groups was three people.

Seeing as how they had the same number of people for a difference I am making the conclusion that your gender does not affect the way something is tasted.

d. Comparing the data from all the classes to the taste

test. Based on the data shown I still am sticking with my earlier

statement.

The only reason that some of the bars for males are higher than the females, are in two of the five classes they contain more males than females.

Therefore there bar will be higher if they guessed correctly because there is more males than there are females.

By looking at the other classes you will notice that the bars tend to be the same height even if one is slightly higher.

l. Explanation for Frequency of Soda

Drinkers graph.

Results from the graph differ from person to person. Some people had a soda more frequent than others, and some never had a drink at all.

m. Results from Frequency of Soda Drinkers graph.

Most people in the class never drank sodas, where 2-3 would drink them two times a week or weekly. This graphs shows that people have different frequencies when they have a soda, like 1 every six months, or daily or even three in a day, we are all different.
