We will use height as the explanatory variable. Weight is the response variable. We will then label the men and women by adding the categorical variable gender to the scatterplot. We will see if separating the groups contributes to our understanding of the form of the relationship between ...
Decides whether the results of statistical tests are to be displayed as a subtitle (Default:TRUE). If set toFALSE, only the plot will be returned. label.var Variable to use for points labels. Can be entered either as a bare expression (e.g,var1) or as a string (e.g.,"var1"). ...
Scatterplot: A kind of plot where all the (X,Y) data points of a data set are plotted on a graph. The X axis is the explanatory variable and the Y axis is the response variable. The points on the plot help visualize any relationship ...

The location on our graph is then marked with a dot. We repeat this process over and over for each point in our data set. The result is a scattering of points, which gives the scatterplot its name. Explanatory and Response One important instruction that remains is to be careful which va...
