Data Set from the Bureau of Justice Statistics

  Incorporate NCVS crime data and test a hypothesis based on your research topic on a binomial distribution as described in this week’s chapter readings. For example, you could test the hypothesis that being male and less than 25 years of age increases the likelihood of being the victim of a homicide. Use the NCVS data to build a table in Microsoft Excel including standard demographic variables comparing victimization rates by age and gender between the two years. Use the data in your Microsoft Excel table to select a graph and prepare a chart to support your hypothesis. Present your Microsoft Excel spreadsheet as a table in a Microsoft Word document.
