Question

A two-way frequency table is shown below that displays the relationship between the region of the country in which people live and the type of music preferred. We took a sample of 193 people and recorded the following results: Country Music Rock Total West 26 15 41 East 24 22 46 South 7 33 40 North 41 25 66 Total 98 95 193 What is the probability (rounded to the nearest whole percent) that a randomly selected person is from the western region of the country if he or she prefers country music? (

Answer 1

Answer:

13%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the two way frequency table :

Country Music Rock Total

West 26 15 41

East 24 22 46

South 7 33 40

North 41 25 66

Total 98 95 193

From. The table :

n(West n Country music) = 26

n(Total) = 193

P(West n Country music) = n(West n Country music) / n(Total)

P(West n Country music) = 26 / 193

= 0.1347

= 13.47%

= 13%
