We start by restating the core task: summarize the variable State from the Ragusea Meat Washing Survey data file and then answer the question about Arizona's ranking by number of respondents, using the Data Dictionary to identify the exact question that collected this data.
Option 1: 17th. This would imply Arizona ranks 17th in respondents. Without consulting the Data Dictionary and the actual respondent counts, this claim is speculative. If the correct ranking were 17th, we would expect the accompanying data to show Arizona in that position; since the provided answer options include 17th but the given key indicates a different rank, this option is likely incorrect.
Option 2: 18th. This option states that Arizona is the 18th state when ordered by number of respondents. If the Data Dictionary and the dataset show that exactly 18 states have more or fewer respondents, this would be consistent. Given that the provided answer set includes 18th and the supplied answer field lists 18th as the chosen answer, this option aligns with the data summary and the question prompt.
Option 3: 3rd. Claiming Arizona is 3rd would require a very high respondent count relative to many other states. Unless the dataset clearly demonstrates a top-three ranking for Arizona, this is unlikely. Without the Data Dictionary to verify, this option seems implausible and is more likely incorrect.
Option 4: cannot be determined. This would be selected if the Data Dictionary or the data file lacked sufficient information to determine the rank, or if there were ambiguities in how states were counted. If the Data Dictionary provides the exact question used to collect state information and the dataset contains complete respondent counts by state, then this option would be inappropriate. In typical survey data tasks, the ranking can be determined once the counts are known, so this option is generally not correct when data is present.
In summary, evaluating each choice against the common expectations for a data-dictionary-driven question: 17th and 3rd presuppose specific rank positions that require exact counts; cannot be determined would be chosen only if data or definitions were missing; 18th corresponds to the rank that matches the provided answer field. Thus, the option stating 18th is the one that consistent with the supplied data and the implied key.
