What is a two-way frequency table?

Back

A two-way frequency table is a statistical table that displays the frequency distribution of two categorical variables, allowing for the analysis of the relationship between them.

How do you calculate the probability of an event using a two-way frequency table?

Back

To calculate the probability of an event, divide the frequency of the event by the total number of observations in the table.

Front

What does it mean if a probability is expressed as a fraction?

Back

A probability expressed as a fraction indicates the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of possible outcomes.

Front

In a two-way table, what does each cell represent?

Back

Each cell in a two-way table represents the frequency count of occurrences for the combination of the two categorical variables.

Front

What is the total frequency in a two-way frequency table?

Back

The total frequency is the sum of all the frequencies in the table, representing the total number of observations.

Front

How can you find the marginal totals in a two-way frequency table?

Back

Marginal totals are found by summing the frequencies across each row and each column of the table.

Front

What is conditional probability in the context of two-way frequency tables?

Back

Conditional probability is the probability of an event occurring given that another event has already occurred, often calculated using the relevant row or column totals.

If there are 40 employees and 20 are male, what is the probability of randomly selecting a male employee?

Back

The probability is 20/40 or 1/2.

Front

Given that an employee is a chief, how do you find the probability that the employee is male?

Back

Count the number of male chiefs and divide by the total number of chiefs.

What is the significance of the blue box in a two-way frequency table?

Back

The blue box often represents a missing value that needs to be calculated based on the other values in the table.
