This homework uses the Cars93 data set. Each observation in the data frame contains information on passenger cars from 1993. This is a big data frame with 27 columns. We are interested in the information on manufacturer (Manufacturer), car model (Model), type of car (Type), car company origin (Origin), midrange price in $1000 (Price), city MPG (miles per US gallon, MPG.city), and fuel tank capacity in gallons (Fuel.tank.capacity).

In one sentence, what broad trend do you observe in city MPG for different car prices? HINT: Plot city MPG on the y-axis and price on the x-axis.
# R code goes hereYour answer goes here. 1 sentence only.
Problem 2: (4 pts) Next, create a bar plot that shows the origin of cars, stacked on top of each other, for each car type. Make two observations about the data from this plot. State each in 1 sentence.
# R code goes hereYour answer goes here. 2 sentences only.
Problem 3: (2 pts) Plot the distribution of fuel tank capacity, once using geom_histogram() and once using geom_density().
# R code goes hereProblem 4: (2 pts) What does the y-axis in your histogram represent? In your density plot, what is the total area under the curve? For the total area, please give a single number as your answer. HINT: You do not need to do any additional calculations to determine the area under the curve. Use Google to find the answer.
Your answer goes here. 2-3 sentences only.
