Many believe that it is not feasible for men and women to be just friends, while others argue that this belief may not be true anymore because gone are the days when men worked and women stayed at home and the only way they could get together was for romance. A researcher conducts a survey on 186 students. The students are asked their sex (male or female) and if it is feasible for men and women to be just friends (yes or no). A portion of the responses is shown in the accompanying table.
Sex|Feasible for men and women to be just friends (Yes)|Feasible for men and women to be just friends (No)
---|---|---
Male|40|30
Female|55|61
Based on the given information, it is not clear if the belief that it is not feasible for men and women to be just friends is true or not.
In the survey, both males and females responded with "yes" and "no" to the question, indicating that there are individuals who believe it is feasible and those who do not.
To determine the overall belief of the students, we would need to analyze the complete survey results or additional information, such as the percentage of males and females who believe it is feasible or not feasible.
