Use the following code to get started with the problem: dat6 <- read.table("RecoveryData.txt", header = T) recovery <- dat6$recovery age <- dat6$age sex <- dat6$sex a.) Take the logarithm of the recovery times and then make a scatterplot of log(recovery time) vs. age. (You do not need to create different plotting characters for males and females.) How can we use this scatterplot to justify fitting a model with log(recovery time) as the response and sex and age as the predictors (i.e., why would this model be preferable to a the model with the un-transformed recovery time as the outcome)? b.) Fit the multiple linear regression model with log(recovery time) as the response and sex and age as the predictors in R. Provide the R output for the fitted model and write down the estimated regression equation
