Answer:

34% of nineteen year old males are less than 146 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The complement of a set A is the set of all the elements in the universal set but are not in the set A.

Let A = 66% of nineteen year old males are at least 146 pounds

The universal set, U = 100% of nineteen year old males

Note that 100% - 66% = 34%

Therefore, the complement of the given event is:

A' = 34% of nineteen year old males are less than 146 pounds
