3. EdCollege and Age 25-34
Now, construct the scatterplot with fitted linear regression line for each pair of variables.
Use Minitab to get the required result.
To draw the scatterplot of the provided data, below mentioned steps are followed in Minitab.
Step 1: Enter the data into Minitab worksheet.
Step 2: Go to Graph, select scatterplot and linear regression and click OK.
Step 3: Select the data variable column and click on Scale.
Step 4: Check minor ticks under Y Scale Low and X Scale Low and then click OK.
The obtained scatterplot of EdCollege and Female is shown below:

Radelet and G. Pierce reported a logistic prediction equation for the death penalty verdicts in North Carolina. Let Y denote whether a subject convicted of murder received the death penalty (1=yes), for the defendant's race h (h1, black; h = 2, white), victim's race i (i = 1, black; i = 2, white), and number of additional factors j (j = 0, 1, 2).
