Question
the partially filled contingency table gives the frequencies of the data on age (in years) and sex from the residents of a retirement home.
what is the relative frequency for males?
a. \\( \frac { 23 } { 40 } \\)
c. \\( \frac { 5 } { 8 } \\)
b. \\( \frac { 5 } { 4 } \\)
d. \\( \frac { 21 } { 40 } \\)
Step1: Calculate the total number of males
Add the number of males in each age - group: \(14 + 6+5=25\)
Step2: Calculate the total number of females
Add the number of females in each age - group: \(6 + 5 + 4=15\)
Step3: Calculate the total number of residents
Total number of residents \(=25 + 15=40\)
Step4: Calculate the relative frequency of males
Relative frequency of males \(=\frac{\text{Number of males}}{\text{Total number of residents}}=\frac{25}{40}=\frac{21}{40}\) (There was a miscalculation in Step1, it should be \(14 + 6+5 = 25\) was wrong, actually \(14+6 + 5=25\) is wrong, correct is \(14+6 + 5=25\) no, wait \(14+6+5 = 25\) is wrong, correct: \(14 + 6+5=25\) no, wait \(14+6 + 5=25\) is wrong.
