Answer 1

To analyze the statement options based on the data in the table, we can look at the number of children and adults who like pineapple on pizza and those who do not.

From the table:

• Pineapple:

  • Children: 6
  • Adults: 25
  • Total: 31

• No Pineapple:

  • Children: 14
  • Adults: 8
  • Total: 22

Total counts:

• Total who like Pineapple (positive responses): 6 (children) + 25 (adults) = 31
• Total who do not like Pineapple (negative responses): 14 (children) + 8 (adults) = 22

Now, let's evaluate each statement:

1. "More adults responded positively than children."

   • True. (25 adults vs. 6 children)

2. "More children were asked the question than adults."

   • False. (20 children vs. 33 adults)

3. "More people overall responded negatively."

   • False. (22 negative responses vs. 31 positive responses)

4. "More children responded positively than adults."

   • False. (6 children vs. 25 adults)

Based on this evaluation, the true statement is:

More adults responded positively than children.
