Using the following cross-classification table, graphically depict a comparison of pet ownership for males vs. females. Are gender and pet ownership related and how do you know? Upload your Excel file.
Own a pet |
Don't own a pet |
|
Females |
75 |
25 |
Males |
40 |
60 |
Owns (b1) | doesn't own (b2) | total | |
Female (a1) | 75 | 25 | 100 |
Male (a2) | 40 | 60 | 100 |
Total | 115 | 85 | 200 |
Let A: the gender of the group of people
B be the ownership status.
We have to check if they are related or indpendent.
By definition of independence, if A and B are independent then,
Now, take A=a1 and B = b1 for instance. Then,
Whereas P[A]=100/200
And P[B] = 115/200.
Clearly
So, A and B are not independent, thus related.
Due to technical issue i couldn't upload the excel file. However if you need that, i can uplload it to my drive and share u the link. Let me know.
