Answer 1

To complete the two-way table, we need to fill in the totals for the "Cloudy," "Sunny," and "Totals" columns and rows.

1. First, we can sum the counts for each row to get the totals for "Cold" and "Warm":

   • Cold days:
     • Cloudy: 40
     • Sunny: 5
     • Total for Cold = 40 + 5 = 45
   • Warm days:
     • Cloudy: 10
     • Sunny: 35
     • Total for Warm = 10 + 35 = 45

2. Next, we can sum the counts for each column to get the totals for "Cloudy" and "Sunny":

   • Cloudy days:
     • Cold: 40
     • Warm: 10
     • Total for Cloudy = 40 + 10 = 50
   • Sunny days:
     • Cold: 5
     • Warm: 35
     • Total for Sunny = 5 + 35 = 40

3. Finally, we can sum the totals for "Cold" and "Warm" to fill in the grand total:

   • Grand total = Total Cold + Total Warm = 45 + 45 = 90

Putting it all together, here’s how the completed table would look:

          Cloudy  Sunny   Totals
Cold        40      5      45
Warm        10     35      45
Totals      50     40      90

So the filled-in totals are:

• Totals for Cold: 45
• Totals for Warm: 45
• Totals for Cloudy: 50
• Totals for Sunny: 40
• Overall Total: 90
