Monte recorded the gas mileage, in miles per hour, of ten different cars he is considering buying: 34, 27, 30, 24, 28, 31, 42, 30, 29, and 19. Put the data in a stem-and-leaf plot.
For the residents in 2012 and 2014, use R to draw 2 box plots (each for a year) to describe the sampled number of residents in 2012 and 2014 by census tracts. Also, write to compare the statistics of the residents by tracts between 2012 and 2014.
