Please help, please make it a clear draft of what this assignment should be like. I really don't know what to do to create this case report

Question:Examination of Eight Indicators of Performance in Business Statistics
Â
Two professors of business statistics wanted to better understand their students. Particularly, they were
interested to discover what variables might help predict and explain students' performance in business statistics.
They collected data on nine variables listed and defined below. The researchers have hired you to help them
prepare a report where you will (1) analyze each of the variables independently and (2) examine the relationship
between the two X variables and the Y variable. Use concepts and tools from chapters 1, 2 and 3 of your
textbook to prepare the first report. Analyze each of the variables separately and then study the relationship
between any two of the X variables and the Y variable. One of the two X variables must be quantitative and the
other one must be qualitative. The overall purpose of the first case analysis report is for you to show how
effectively you can apply the statistical concepts and tools you have learned from the first three chapters to
analyze the data in this case and make meaningful interpretations for theories and practices related to these
variables.
Â
X1= How would you rate yourself with respect to your knowledge about computers? 1 (very poor) 2 3 4 5 6 7 (excellent)
X2= How many hours per week do you use the Internet? ________________hours per week
X3= What is your classification? 1. Freshman 2. Sophomore 3. Junior 4. Senior 5.Graduate
X4= Are you a first generation college student? 1. yes 2. no
X5= Your gender: 1. male 2. female
X6= Your age: ______________Years
X7= Your ethnicity: 1. African 2. Anglo 3. Asian 4. Hispanic 5. Native American 6. Other
X8= Extravert (E) or Introvert (I) Personality Type of Student
Y= Course grade on a 100 point scale

Include the following in your report:
1. Indicate the scale of measurement--nominal, ordinal, interval or ratio--for each of the 9 variables.
Explain
2. Indicate the type of variable--qualitative or quantitative--for each of the 9 variables. Explain
3. Choose one qualitative X variable to create (1) a frequency distribution table and (2) an appropriate bar
or pie chart based on that frequency distribution table. Interpret the implications.
4. Choose the quantitative Y variable to create (1) a frequency distribution table and (2) a histogram based
on that frequency distribution table. Interpret the implications.
5. Create a crosstab to show the relationship between your chosen X variable and the Y variable. Interpret
the implications.
6. Create a scatter diagram between one quantitative X variable and the Y variable and interpret its
meaning.
7. Use appropriate numerical measures of descriptive statistics from chapter 3 to study your variable Y.
Make sure you explain how each of the computed numbers can be useful.
