Does the data show an association between grade level and participation in a school sport?
It is not possible to determine whether there is an association between grade level and participation in a school sport because the number of students surveyed in each grade level is not the same.
There is an association. More 11th graders than 8th graders participate in a school sport.
There is no association. The percent of students who participate in a school sport is the same in each grade level surveyed.
There is an association. 8th graders are less likely than 11th graders to participate in a school sport.
To determine the correct answer, we need to analyze the data regarding participation in school sports across different grade levels.
If the survey indicates that a higher percentage of 11th graders participate in sports compared to 8th graders, then the correct statement is: “There is an association. More 11th graders than 8th graders participate in a school sport.”
This suggests that grade level does affect the likelihood of participating in sports.
If you notice that the participation rates are equal across grades, then you would say, “There is no association. The percent of students who participate in a school sport is the same in each grade level surveyed.”
