Upcharging heavier smokers

In this exercise, you will investigate how smoker status and BMI affect the cost of insurance premium charges. You will accomplish this by creating a scatter plot that displays insurance charges against BMI, grouped by smoker status. You will utilize the DataFrame recipe we discussed in the video to achieve this.

The insurance DataFrame has already been loaded for you, providing the necessary data for the analysis. The DataFrames package has been imported.
