Questions:
1. Make a histogram of Population variable using hist function.
2. Color the above histogram yellow, increase number of breaks to 25.
3. In the above histogram, add x label = Population, main = Distribution of State Population. Describe the distribution: Is it symmetric, right skewed, or left skewed?
4. Make a Bar graph to show the distribution of state.region variable.
5. Customize the above bargraph and color the bars red, blue, green, and yellow.
6. Scatterplot of Murder (y-axis) vs Frost (x-axis).
7. Customizing the scatterplot in #6, x label = Frost, y label = Murder, main = Murder vs Frost. Is the form (linear or nonlinear), direction (positive or negative), strength (strong or weak)?
8. Scatterplot matrix of Population + Income + Illiteracy + Life.Exp + Murder + HS.Grad + Frost + Area. Life.Exp has negative relationship with which two variables? Illiteracy has positive relationship with which variable?
9. Make boxplots to compare distribution of HS.Grad across state.region.
10. Color the above box plot red, blue, green, and yellow.
11. Add x label as Region, Y label as High School Graduation, and main as High School Graduation across Regions. Which region has the highest median graduation rate? Which region has the lowest median graduation rate?
12. Add varwidth = T in the above boxplots to display difference in number of observations.
