To determine how many shoppers Suzie surveyed, we would need specific data from her survey results, which is not provided in your question.
Regarding whether the number of items purchased seems to have an effect on the amount of money a shopper spent, this relationship could be analyzed by looking at the correlation between the number of items bought and the total spending. Generally, one might expect that as the number of items purchased increases, the total money spent would also increase, assuming that there is an average price per item.
However, some factors could influence this relationship, such as:
-
Type of Items: If a shopper buys many inexpensive items, they might spend less than if they bought fewer but higher-priced items.
-
Discounts or Sales: Promotions could affect how much is spent versus the number of items purchased.
-
Shopping Habits: Different shoppers have varying tendencies; for instance, some might only buy a few luxurious items, while others might buy many items at lower prices.
To draw a conclusion about the relationship between the number of items and spending, statistical analysis with Suzie's collected data (such as a scatter plot or calculating the correlation coefficient) would be necessary.
