Conclusion: Figure 3 expresses a clear fact that if the weather
is searing and hot, then the ice cream consumption will
increase; and on freezing and chilly days, the ice cream
consumption will be less. Moreover, the ice cream consumption
increased year after year since March 18, 1951, at least for the
3 years of the study as indicated by figure 3. Although our
sample is relatively small, we believe this is not coincident
because the ice cream industry is prosperity in this day and
age. For instance, Dreyer's Grand Ice Cream Company has new ice
cream flavor every year and had more than a billion dollars in
annual revenue (Reference 2). As a result, the history did
verify our testing result.
