Question

the conditional relative - frequency table below was generated by column from a frequency table comparing a flower to a type of flower.

	daisy	rose	total
yellow	d	e	f
white	g	h	j
total	1.0	1.0	1.0

which would most likely indicate an association between the categorical variables?
o the value of g is similar to the value of h.
o the value of b is similar to the value of e.
o the value of g is not similar to the value of h.
o the value of b is not similar to the value of e.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall association concept

In a two - way relative frequency table for categorical variables, an association exists when the relative frequencies for one variable are different across the levels of the other variable.

Step2: Analyze options

If the value of $G$ (relative frequency of white - daisy) is not similar to the value of $H$ (relative frequency of white - rose), it indicates that the color (white) has a different distribution between daisies and roses. This is a sign of an association between the color and the type of flower. If the relative frequencies were similar, it would suggest no association. The other options about $B$ and $E$ (red and yellow roses) do not directly show an overall association between the two categorical variables (color and type of flower) as clearly as the comparison of $G$ and $H$.

Answer:

The value of G is not similar to the value of H.
