Curated by ACT

On April 15, 1912, the Titanic struck an iceberg and rapidly sank with only 710 of her 2,204 passengers and crew surviving. Some believe that the rescue procedures favored the wealthier first class passengers. Data on survival of passengers are summarized in the table below. We will use this data to investigate the validity of such claims. (Data source: http://www.encyclopedia-titanica.org/titanic-statistics.html) Aligns with S-CP.A.2, S-CP.A.3, S-CP.A.4, S-CP.A.5, and S-CP.B.6
