Answers:

1.

Male Female Total

Walking 9 8 17

Ride the Bus 16 26 42

Carpooling 19 24 43

Total 44 58 102

2. 3/34

3. 24/43

4. Carpooling

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking into account the information of the question we get that:

There are 44 male students and they are distributed as:

Walk: 9

Ride the bus: 16

Carpooling: 44 - (9 + 16) = 19

In the same way, there are 58 female students distributed as:

Walk: 58 - (26 + 24) = 8

Ride the bus: 26

Carpooling: 24

Therefore, we can make a two-way table as:

Male Female Total

Walking 9 8 17

Ride the Bus 16 26 42

Carpooling 19 24 43

Total 44 58 102

Now, the proportion of students who are female and walk to school is:


\text{Proportion = }(9)/(102)=(9/3)/(102/3)=(3)/(34)

Because there are 102 students and 9 of them are female and walk to school.

In the same way, of the students who carpool, the proportion of females is:


\text{Proportion}=(24)/(43)

Finally, I would predict that the mode of transportation is Carpooling because 43 is greater than 17 (students that walk) and 43 is also greater than 42 ( students that ride a bus).

So, the answers are:

1.

Male Female Total

Walking 9 8 17

Ride the Bus 16 26 42

Carpooling 19 24 43

Total 44 58 102

2. 3/34

3. 24/43

4. Carpooling
