Using the education-income data provided from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, create a model of income as a function of education for the entire population (Figure 1.1) and then for men and women separate (Figure 1.5). Interpret the finding in a two-page report (APA) with three figures and three tables, fully explained. (I just need help figuring out the data and interpreting it to be able to write a report on this). How do I create a model?
