THE SITUATION:
Aurora works as an intern for NBC Olympics. She is conducting some preliminary research to gauge viewers interest and excitement about the 2022 and 2024 Olympic Games. She wants to see if viewers are looking forward to the 2022 Beijing or 2024 Paris games more. Based on her preliminary research, she will draft a marketing plan for NBC for the 2022 and 2024 Olympic games, and highlight any issues she sees with viewership patterns. So far, Aurora has surveyed 15 NBC viewers and asked them 1) if they will watch the opening and closing ceremonies, 2) how many sports they will watch, 3) the number of days they will watch, and 4) their overall excitement about the games. Here are the variables she has collected so far:

    Beijing_OpenCloseCeremony- measures if the viewer plans to watch or not watch the opening and closing ceremonies for the 2022 Beijing Olympics.
    Beijing_NumberSports- measures the number of sports the viewer plans to watch during the 2022 Beijing Olympic games.
    Beijing_DaysWatched- measures the number of days the viewer plans to watch during the 2022 Beijing Olympic games.
    Beijing_Excitement- measures the level of excitement the viewer feels about the 2022 Beijing Olympic games on a 1-7 scale, ranging from 1=not at all excited to 7=extremely excited.
    Paris_OpenCloseCeremony- measures if the viewer plans to watch or not watch the opening and closing ceremonies for the 2024 Paris Olympics.
    Paris_NumberSports- measures the number of sports the viewer plans to watch during the 2024 Paris Olympic games.
