Solution Steps

To interpret the value in the highlighted cell, we need to understand the structure of the relative frequency table. The table shows the proportion of hot dog orders with different combinations of chili and cheese. The cell with 0.2 is in the row labeled "No chili" and the column labeled "Cheese," which indicates the proportion of customers who ordered cheese but no chili on their hot dogs. Therefore, the correct interpretation is that 20% of the customers ordered cheese but no chili on their hot dogs.

Step 1: Understand the Table Structure

The table provided is a relative frequency table that shows the proportion of hot dog orders with different combinations of chili and cheese. Each cell in the table represents the fraction of total orders that fall into a specific category.

Step 2: Identify the Highlighted Cell

The highlighted cell contains the value \(0.2\), which is located in the row labeled "No chili" and the column labeled "Cheese." This cell represents the proportion of customers who ordered cheese but no chili on their hot dogs.

Step 3: Interpret the Value

The value \(0.2\) in the highlighted cell indicates that \(20\%\) of the total customers ordered cheese but no chili on their hot dogs. This is derived from the relative frequency of the orders in that specific category.

Final Answer

\(\boxed{A}\)
