Question

probability calculating relative frequencies in a contingency table: advanced a sample of 329 people is selected. the people are classified according to place of residence (\urban\, \suburban\, or
ural\). they are also classified according to highest educational degree earned (
o college degree\, \two - year degree\, \four - year degree\, or \advanced degree\). the results are given in the contingency table below. among the people in the sample whose place of residence is urban, what is the relative frequency of those who do not have a college degree? round your answer to two decimal places.

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate the total number of urban residents

Add up the numbers in the "Urban" row: \(16 + 29+24 + 48=117\)

Step2: Calculate the relative frequency

The number of urban residents with no - college degree is \(16\). The relative frequency formula is \(\text{Relative Frequency}=\frac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}\). So, \(\frac{16}{117}\approx0.14\)

Answer:

\(0.14\)
