Question

levitt and dubner support the claim with the reason: sumo wrestlers who win eight or more matches earn a higher rank than those who do not. which evidence supports this reason?

Answer 1

Statistical

Explanation:

• The question is incomplete. Based on the full question, it is statistical.
• This is an excerpt from Stephen Levitt and Stephen Dubner's Freakonomics.
• The excerpt gives the statistical data of the wrestlers. The win-loss percentage between 7-7 wrestlers and 8-6 wrestlers is judged when either one of them is in the bubble the next time.
• There will not be pressure in the individual match. They win only 40% of the rematches.

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer would be b: the actual win percentage for 7-7 wrestlers is higher than the predicted win percentage.
