use the table to answer the question.
which type of media research project does the information in the table most support?
(1 point)

• an anecdotal case study of individual viewing habits
• a testimonial interview with a prominent media ceo
• a statistical analysis of changes in viewing habits
• an analogical comparison between radio and television

Explanation:

The table provides numerical data on cable/satellite TV adoption across different age groups in two separate years (2015 and 2021). This quantitative data tracks changes over time, which aligns with statistical analysis of shifting viewing habits. The other options do not fit: anecdotal case studies focus on individual stories, testimonial interviews rely on personal accounts, and analogical comparisons would require contrasting two different media types (not present here).

Answer:

○ a statistical analysis of changes in viewing habits
