A poll was taken to explore the relationship between age and support for a candidate in an election. The results of the poll are summarized in the table. How many people above age 30 are for the candidate?

Answer 1

For the age group 31-40, 50 people are in favor of the candidate.
For the age group over 40, 35 people are in favor of the candidate.

Therefore, there are a total of 50 + 35 = 85 people above age 30 who are for the candidate.

Answer 3

Apologies for the confusion. The correct calculation should be as follows:

For the age group 21-30, 40 people are in favor of the candidate.
For the age group 31-40, 30 people are in favor of the candidate.

Therefore, there are a total of 40 + 30 = 70 people above age 30 who are for the candidate.

So, the correct answer is 70.
