UNIT 4 ASSIGNMENT
Introduction to Linear Models
Instructions
The questions below will prepare you for future interviews as they relate to concepts discussed
throughout the unit. You’ve practiced these concepts in the coding activities, exercises and coding
portion of the assignment. Now, let’s formulate your programming into well-thought responses.
Except as indicated, use this document to record all your assignment work and responses to any
questions. At a minimum, you will need to turn in a digital copy of this document to your facilitator as
part of your assignment completion. You may also have additional supporting documents that you will
need to submit. Your facilitator will provide feedback to help you work through your findings.
