e. Repeat the analysis, this time looking for similarities between respondents for the ten sports on two-dimensions

f. How many clusters of consumers appear from the graph?

g. Run a principal component analysis on the 50 consumers (hint – transpose the data-set), extract the first two components and run a cluster analysis. Do results look similar to the ones of MDS?
