math mutuals asking for some help!!!!!!!!!! here are some steps for my math investigation but i don't really know what procedures i should follow....
Notes:
my current thoughts are for outline are:
-introduction and context
-population across years (1960-2020, every five years) in the form of table
-population/year scatter plot
-standard deviation (??) or ranking the data and doing pearsons test
-r^2 and regression line
+
-gdp (same as population: table, scatter plot, correlation test, r^2 and regression)
-gdp per capita (same as gdp)
-then compare the gdp and gdp per capita, finally conclude to compare gdp rather than gdp per capita for a better measure of economic growth (not development)
+
+
-scatter plot (or table first?) of gdp against population
-correlation test
-regression
-final conclusion + link to historical context
MAIN QUESTIONS:
-would linear regression, exponential regression, or power regression be the most suitable in this case?
-what does 'accurate modelling' mean? what the fuck is a math model?? is it just tables and graphs????
-am i doing the correlation and regression in the +
+ right order??? which one is supposed to be first????
-should i use pearsons/spearman's rank correlation or just do standard deviation with the data?
-are there any important method steps that i missed? any steps i don't need?
Please save me my math teacher is shit and said he won't be available to answer questions
