Two-Way Table

○​ A two-way table displays ________________ categories of data collected from the same source.

○​ A two-way table is used to draw conclusions about how the categories are __________________.

Motivation A survey of students was taken to determine whether they identified their height as short, average,
or tall and whether they preferred soup or salad. The results of the survey are shown below.

Height

Short Average Tall Total

Soup
5 2 2
Salad
3 4 6
Total

a.​ How many students preferred salad?

b.​ How many students identify as average height?

c.​ To the nearest percent, how many students identified as average height?

Two-Way Relative Frequency Table
○​ A two-way relative frequency table displays the _______________ of the frequency in a particular category to the
total number of data values.

Height

Short Average Tall Total

Soup
5 2 2 9
Salad
3 4 6 13
Total
8 6 8 22

a.​ What percent of students prefer soup?

b.​ What percent of students identify as short?

c.​ What is the relative frequency of identifying as average and preferring salad?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Statistics requires collecting data, analyzing data, then using that data to make _____________________________.

○​ A conditional relative frequency is used to understand __________________________ or trends within the data set.

d.​ Of the students who prefer salad, what percentage identify as average?

e.​ What percent of students who identify as average prefer salad?

Think about it…

Why are the answers to (d) and (e) the same or different?
