Dataset Analysis

You have been provided with a dataset from the Ministry of Transportation in Argentina, which lists the number of passengers entering and leaving Argentina via ferry companies on a daily basis.

Your task is to use appropriate statistical tools (such as a t-test, paired test, or any other relevant test) to determine whether more passengers are entering or leaving Argentina on average. You should calculate the necessary metrics (e.g., mean, standard deviation) and conduct the statistical test to draw a conclusion based on the data. Case: Passenger traffic in and out of Argentina is recorded in a dataset. One must determine whether more people enter Argentina or leave on each boat to identify a marketing strategy for the port and boats billboards. They obtained a dataset ( listing the number of passengers leaving or entering Argentina per ferry company per day.

Answer Additional Questions:

Confidence in Your Answer

• How confident are you in your conclusion that more people are entering or leaving Argentina on average?
• Discuss the confidence level of your results (e.g., p-value, significance level). How confident are you that the results are not due to random chance?

Impact of Summer Months

• Would your conclusion change if you focused only on data from the summer months?
• Keep in mind that Argentina is in the Southern Hemisphere, so the summer months correspond to December, January, and February. Does the analysis for the summer period suggest a different trend than the overall data?

Extrapolation to Other Traffic

• Can the results from this ferry dataset be extrapolated to other modes of transportation such as air travel, cars, or buses?
• Discuss why or why not you think ferry traffic data can be generalized to all transportation traffic. Consider factors such as transportation type, seasonality, and passenger behavior.
