Introduction

The rise of Internet has been encountered and acknowledged by countries around the globe. The adoption of Internet in diverse fields is enhancing with the passage of time. The use of internet not only facilitates households, students and business organizations but internet facilitates almost every entity. There are several factors associated with the use of internet; hence, this paper will enlighten the relationship between these factors and internet in order to answer the prescribed questions. In order to perform diverse statistical tests to explore possible answers to the questions, the data was collected from different data bases of United Nations datasets. This minimized the time of data collection as the analysis of the study required in-depth data to be analyzed for answering prescribed questions.

Question 1

While analyzing the distributions of per capita GDP and the percent using the internet, it was analyzed that the distributions representing per capita GDP are positively skewed or right-skewed. The value of skewness obtained from analysis of data through the implication of descriptive statistics is 2.155. This value represents the skewness of per capita GDP.

Furthermore, the analysis through the box plot constructed for the percent using internet asserted that the distributions representing study variables are normally distributed. The analysis of data through the implication of descriptive statistics asserts that the skewness value representing the percent using internet is 0.330.

Question 2

The data accumulated from the prescribed source was analyzed via the implication of correlation in order to formulate correlation matrix using all the quantitative variables. The implication of correlation matrix is responsible for enlightening the relationship between the study variables. Furthermore, the implication of correlation matrix in this scenario will assist the process of evaluating relationship between study variables so that the variable that shows high correlation with percent of individuals using internet can be highlighted. The correlation matrix obtained from analysis of the data is prescribed below.

According to the analysis of correlation matrix obtained from implication of correlation on data acquired from prescribed source, it can be stated that the highest value representing the extent of relationship between study variables is -0.820014838. This value represents the relationship between percent of individuals using internet and population under 15. Since, the value is negative; hence, it can be there is negative relationship between population under 15 and the percent of individuals using internet. Furthermore, it can be stated that 1 unit change in population under 15 will cause 1 unit negative change in percent of individuals using internet.

Question 3

This section of analysis is aimed to create a graph that represents the relationship between the selected study variables. The independent variable in this section of analysis is internet. Furthermore, the dependent variable considered for analysis is women's school life expectancy. In order to explain the relationship between the study variables scatter plot was used to graphically represent the data. The ...
