    Question

    Of 100 individuals, systolic blood pressure (SB) was measured and classified into three classes: 1 = low, 2 = medium and 3 = high. Also, the physical activity behavior (AG) was measured and classified into three classes classified: 1 = rarely, 2 = sometimes, 3 = regularly. The results are shown in cross tabulation below:

    ————- ——– ——– ——– frequencies SB = 1 SB = 2 SB = 3 AG = 1 4 12 14 AG = 2 13 25 12 AG = 3 8 8 4 ————- ——– ——– ——–

    For these 100 people, what is P(SB ≤ 2 ∪ AG = 3)?


    1. FALSE: 0.16
    2. TRUE: 0.74
    3. FALSE: 0.8
    4. FALSE: 0.9

    1. 0.16: Incorrect
    2. 0.74: Correct
    3. 0.8: Incorrect
    4. 0.9: Incorrect
