Question

structure complete the two - way table.
plan to attend
school dance
yes no total
gender male 38
female 24 112
total 196

Explanation:

Step1: Find the number of females who plan to attend

Total number of females is \(112\), number of females who don't plan to attend is \(24\). So, number of females who plan to attend is \(112 - 24=88\).

Step2: Find the total number of people who plan to attend

Total number of people is \(196\). Let the total number of people who plan to attend be \(x\). Total number of people who don't plan to attend is \(y\). We know \(x + y=196\). Since number of females who plan to attend is \(88\) and number of males who plan to attend is \(38\), \(x=38 + 88 = 126\). Then \(y=196-126 = 70\).

Step3: Find the number of males who don't plan to attend

Total number of people who don't plan to attend is \(70\), number of females who don't plan to attend is \(24\). So number of males who don't plan to attend is \(70 - 24=46\).

Step4: Find the total number of males

Number of males who plan to attend is \(38\), number of males who don't plan to attend is \(46\). So total number of males is \(38+46 = 84\).

Answer:

Plan to Attend School Dance	Yes	No	Total
Female	\(88\)	\(24\)	\(112\)
Total	\(126\)	\(70\)	\(196\)
