Among fatal plane crashes that occurred during the past 70 years, 582 were due to pilot error, 57 were due to other human error, 174 due to weather, 446 were due to mechanical problems, and 289 or due to savages. Construct the relative frequency distribution. What is the most serious threat to evocation safety, and can anything be done about it?

Question

Among fatal plane crashes that occurred during the past 70 years, 582 were due to pilot error, 57 were due to other human error, 174 due to weather, 446 were due to mechanical problems, and 289 or due to savages. Construct the relative frequency distribution. What is the most serious threat to evocation safety, and can anything be done about it?

Expert Solution
Step 1

The frequency of a class or observation is the number of values corresponding to it.

The relative frequency of a certain class or observation in a data set is obtained by dividing the class or observation frequency by total frequency.

The sum of the relative frequencies is equal to 1.
