Using the “cars” dataset in R, build a linear model for stopping distance as a function of speed and replicate the analysis of your textbook chapter 3 (visualization, quality evaluation of the model, and residual analysis.)

cars <- datasets::cars
 plot(cars$speed, cars$dist, main="Cars",
xlab="Speed", ylab="Stopping Distance")

cars.lm <- lm(dist ~ speed, data=cars)
summary(cars.lm)

## lm(formula = dist ~ speed, data = cars)
