In a study on animal preferences, two of the questions adults were asked were:
1. Do you like dogs?
2. Do you like cats?
The data is summarized in the table below:
The side by side bar charts below compare peoples feelings about dogs and cats. Based on the data distributions, are people's feelings about dogs and their feelings about cats associated or independent?
Hint: does a person's feelings about dogs make them more or less likely to like or dislike cats?


Base your answer on the bar charts (similarity vs different), and if they are associated, give a possible association. If they are independent what does this mean?
