  1. a) Q: Why is it appropriate to use the variable year event occurred as the explanatory variable and estimated year event occurred as the response variable? A: The reason why we do this is to more easily differentiate our response from the actual answer. An easier way to explain this is our estimate was a response and the actual year 'explains' and shows us the reality
  2. b) Q: What would the scatterplot look like if you had guessed the correct year for each event? A: The scatterplot would look as though there is only one set of data. The dots on the image would overlap one another.
