#2.)create an R markdown with "DISTNAME", "DPETSPEP", and "DPFPASPEP".
obj2<-district %>% select(DISTNAME,DPETSPEP,DPFPASPEP)
#3.)"summary()" statistics for both DPETSPEP and DFPASPEP.
summary(obj2)

4.) which variable has missing values? - The variable DPFPASPEP has 5 NA’s.

#5.)remove the missing observations. 
obj2_cleaned<-obj2 %>% filter(!is.na(DPFPASPEP))
#How many are left overall? - Originally, there were 1207 observations and after removing NA's, there are now 1202 observations.
#6.) create a point graph to compare DPFPASPEP and DPETSPEP.
ggplot(obj2,aes(DPETSPEP,DPFPASPEP)) + geom_point()
## Warning: Removed 5 rows containing missing values or values outside the scale range
## (`geom_point()`).

#6.) Are they correlated - No, they are not correlated. 
#7.) Do a mathematical check of DPFPASPEP and DPETSPEP. What is the result? 
cor(obj2_cleaned$DPETSPEP,obj2_cleaned$DPFPASPEP)
## [1] 0.3700234

8.) How would you interpret these results? - the theory is that the more special education students you have, the more a district spends on the special education department. What it shows it that some districts spend more on a small percentage of special education students while other districts have high percentage of special education students and spend around the same amount as those districts that have small percentages.
