Math 104 Fall Final 2017
Global Terrorism is a documented problem the World is dealing with. In the elementary Statistics course we conducted an experiment examining the correlation of multiple aspects to why there has been a rise in terrorism in certain decades.

We see in the final graph many Middle Eastern countries and African countries deal with terrorism on a larger scale. At the lower right corner of the third graph you can see a slight rise in terrorism in America and Western Europe. The graphs are all connected with each terror event that has taken place a decline in terrorism will occur for some time before an event will take place. Before 2001 there was a pattern to which every 5 years a major event would take place and claim many lives. We see in graph 2 in America they’re not many terrorist attacks but in 1995 and 2001 and 2015. The final graph easily displays while other countries are dealing with terrorism on a larger scale Western Europe and America are slowly but surely rising with deadly attacks as well.
