This question is incomplete.
The complete question says;
The two-way table shows the number of hours students studied and whether they studied independently or with a study group.
What is the relative frequency of students that studied independently for more than 2 hours to the total number of students that studied independently?
a) 0.4 c) 0.25
b) 0.33 d) 0.11
Table is attached as image
Answer: C (0.25)
The number of students that studied for more than 2 hours as given in the table are 4.
The total number of people that studied independently include those that studied less than 2 hours and those that studied for more than 2 hours.
Those that studied less than 2 hours independently are 12.
Those that studied more than 2 hours independently are 4.
Hence the total number of people that studied independently is 16.
Therefore the relative frequency of students that studied independently for more than 2 hours to the total number of students that studied independently would be = 4/16 = 1/4 = 0.25.
Answer: 40%
Step-by-step explanation: First determine whether the number increases or decreases. Since the number changes from 100 to 140 it's getting bigger, so it increases.
To find the percent increase, we use the following formula.
The amount of change is the difference between the two numbers which is 40 and we get this by subtracting 100 from 140. The original number will be the number that we started with which is 100.
140/100 simplifies to 0<em>.</em>4.
Finally, we want the percent increase so we write 0<em>.</em>4 as a percent by moving the decimal point 2 places to the right to get 40%.
Therefore, the percent increase is 40%.
