Answer 2

Answer:

1)

The total number of students in the 25-34 age group.

2)

10.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a table as follows:

Age Group       Male     Female        Marginal Total

18–24              5,640      6,432             12,072

25–34               1,843      2,450              4,293

35+                      1 ,069     2,124              3,193

Total               8,552      11,006      19,558

We know that the marginal total is the total of all the entries along the row i.e. it is the total number of students of the two genders in the given age group.

Hence,The marginal total 4,293 is 1. the total number of students in the 25-34 age group.

Also, The relative frequency of females in the 35-plus age group compared with the total number of students, expressed as a percentage, is 2. 10.9%.

( Since, the relative frequency is calculated as:

(Number of females in 35+ age group/Total number of students)×100

= (2124/19558)×100

=10.9% )
