Question

what percentage of 9th-grade boys are likely to be involved in drinking

Answer 1

Got this from some person

Most youth do not regularly binge drink. In fact, binge drinking in high school students declined from 28.3% in 2003 to 25.5% in 2005. However, the age of binge drinking initiation is getting younger, especially among boys. Rates of binge drinking for 9th grade boys increased from 18.8% in 2003 to 20.7% in 2005. And 33.9% of 9th graders reported having consumed alcohol before age 13. Research shows that people who begin drinking at an early age face enormous risks of becoming alcoholics.
