Order of earthquakes

In this exercise you will use the ACF and PACF plots to decide on the most appropriate order to forecast the earthquakes time series.

AR(p) MA(q) ARMA(p,q)
ACF Tails off Cuts off after lag q Tails off
PACF Cuts off after lag p Tails off Tails off

The earthquakes time series earthquake, the plot_acf(), and plot_pacf() functions, and the ARIMA model class are available in your environment.
