Question

the conditional relative frequency table below was generated by column using data comparing gender and a persons favorite meal to cook. which would most likely indicate an association between the categorical variables? the value of a is similar to the value of b. the value of a is similar to the value of e. the value of b is not similar to the value of c. the value of b is not similar to the value of f.

Explanation:

In a conditional - relative frequency table for two categorical variables, an association is indicated when the conditional relative frequencies for one variable are different across the levels of the other variable. Here, if the proportion of males who prefer lunch (B) is not similar to the proportion of females who prefer lunch (F), it suggests that gender and favorite meal to cook are associated. If these values were similar, it would imply that gender has little to no impact on the preference for lunch as a favorite meal to cook.

Answer:

The value of B is not similar to the value of F.
