agine you work for the Governor's Anti-Crime Council and you are being asked to prepare a report on the crime trends in Massachusetts. The Governor is especially interested in the murder rate for 2019 so that a comparison for the past decade (i.e., 2009-2019) can be made to see whether the murder rate has gone up or down. That being said, you decide to start your report by looking at this particular crime in more detail. Using the homicide statistics for MA in 2019, which are expressed as percentages, you decide to look at homicide victims in MA broken up into the following age categories: 14 and Under, 15-24, 25-34, 35-44, 45-54, and 55 and older
