Relationship Between Shoe Size and Height Liliana Galeno Relationship Between Shoe Size and Height

Conclusion: As evidence by my date I claim that there IS a relationship between shoe size and height because the line on the graph was increasing signifying that the taller the person is the bigger shoe size he or she will have. Further factors that can be analyzed are whether or not age and gender can influence the data and or results.
