Explanation / Answer

Answer to question# 1)

This data consists of the credit card details of the consumers. It shows us what type of card they have and the amount of sales made and the number of items purchased on that card. Then this data also contains some demographic details like: the age and marital status of the consumers. An interesting question can be based on : Does the card usage depend on the card type , the gender of the consumer, the age of the consumer and the marital status of the consumer.

In this the dependent variable would be : sales , and all the other variables would be considered as independent variables.
