--- title: "Lab 1" author: "Name here" date: "Due September 6, 2018" output: html_document --- Please use D2L to turn in both the HTML output and your R Markdown file in. ### Q1. (50 pts) For part a and b, simulate 100 points, create a plot to show the simulated data, and include a brief caption for each figure. Note your figure should be neat and contain appropriate titles, axes, and labels. #### a. Include a linear trend in time and a random component #### b. Include a linear trend, a seasonal cycle, and a random component #### c. (STAT 536 only) Write out the mathematical notation for the models in part a and part b. ### Q2. (50 pts) For this question use a dataset containing individual bike trips from the Capital Bike Share program in Washington, D.C. The data can be downloaded at [http://math.montana.edu/ahoegh/teaching/stat408/datasets/biketrips2017.csv](http://math.montana.edu/ahoegh/teaching/stat408/datasets/biketrips2017.csv) #### a. Using this dataset, create a plot of the number of bike trips by day. Include appropriate titles, labels, and a caption (a few sentences) to describe the figure. #### b. Does this dataset give enough information to visualize or estimate a trend, why or why not? #### c. Does this dataset give enough information to visualize or estimate a cyclical pattern, why or why not? #### d. (STAT 536 only) Redo, parts a - c, but now look at the number of trips by hour and day. You can reduce the dataset to only include the last 10 days.
