High school and college students were surveyed to choose a favorite movie genre: action, drama, or comedy. 34.5% of the students in the survey chose action, and 56.9% of the students in the survey were college students. From the sample, it is found that 23% were high school students who chose action, and 13.2% were high school students who chose drama. 29.3% were college students who chose drama, and 16.1% were college students who chose comedy. Which of the following is a correct two-way relative frequency table for the data?
We can group the data by movie kind (action, drama, comedy) and student type (high school, college) and then compute the relative frequencies for each combination to build a two-way relative frequency table. The table should resemble the following: | Action | Drama | Comedy | Total
High School |? |? |? |?
College |? |? |? |?
Total | ? | ? | ? | 100% ''' The table needs to be filled out using the available data. Calculate the following values: 1. Of all pupils, 34.5% elected to take action. 2. 56.9% of all college students 3. 23% of high school students chose to take action. 4. Drama majors in high school: 13.2% 5. Dramatic majors in college: 29.3% 16.1% of college students chose humor. Let's now compute each of the values in the table individually: - High school students who made the decision to take action: (100% - 56.9%)/(Total high school pupils) * 34.5% = 43.1% Students who elected to take action in college: (Total college students) * (Percentage who chose to take action) = 56.9% * 34.5% = 19.6% - High schoolers who selected comedy: (All high schoolers) * (Proportion of respondents that selected humor) = (100% - 56.9%) * (100% - 34.5%) = 25.1% - The percentage of college students that chose humor was 56.9% * 16.1% * 9.2% (Total college students) Now that the table is complete: A total of: | Action | Drama | Comedy
Secondary school: 19.6%, 13.2%, 25.1%, and 100%
college enrollment: 43.1%, 29.3%, 9.2%, and 100%
Total | 62.7% | 42.5% | 34.3% | 100% Therefore, the following is the appropriate two-way relative frequency table for the data: A total of: | Action | Drama | Comedy
Secondary school: 19.6%, 13.2%, 25.1%, and 100%
college enrollment: 43.1%, 29.3%, 9.2%, and 100%
Total | 62.7% | 42.5% | 34.3% | 100%
tysm I was so confused with that
