If the relative frequencies are 0.48 and 0.52, which
conclusion is most likely supported by the data?
O There is likely an association between the
categorical variables because the relative
frequencies are similar in value.
O An association cannot be determined between the
categorical variables because the relative
frequencies are similar in value.
O An association cannot be determined between the
categorical variables because the relative
frequencies are not similar in value.
O There is likely an association between the
categorical variables because the relative
frequencies are both close to 0.50.

Option (B) an association cannot be determined between the categorical variables because the relative frequencies are similar in value is the correct answer.

What is relative frequency?

The relative frequency of an event is defined as the number of times that the event occurs during experimental trials, divided by the total number of trials conducted. The sum of all relative frequencies will be one.

For the given situation,

The relative frequencies are 0.48 and 0.52.

A two-way frequency table can be used to show, analyze, and examine the relationships that exists between two categorical variables.

The two relative frequencies have the values that are similar to (close to) each other. So, there will be no association between the categorical values.

Hence we can conclude that option (B) an association cannot be determined between the categorical variables because the relative frequencies are similar in value is the correct answer.
