Python eggs (1.1) How is the hatching of water python eggs influenced by the temperature
Chapter 2, Problem 76(choose chapter or problem)
Python eggs (1.1) How is the hatching of water python eggs influenced by the temperature of the snakes nest? Researchers assigned newly laid eggs to one of three temperatures: hot, neutral, or cold. Hot duplicates the extra warmth provided by the mother python, and cold duplicates the absence of the mother. Here are the data on the number of eggs and the number that hatched:15 Cold Neutral Hot Number of eggs 27 56 104 Number hatched 16 38 75 (a) Make a two-way table of temperature by outcome (hatched or not). (b) Calculate the percent of eggs in each group that hatched. The researchers believed that eggs would be less likely to hatch in cold water. Do the data support that belief?

ANSWER:Step 1 of 4
Given table:
The number of eggs will contain the column totals of the two-way table, while the number of hatched eggs is one of the rows in the two-way table (columns will be named the same as above table).
