Contingency Table
A contingency table can be defined as the visual representation of the relationship between two or more categorical variables that can be evaluated and registered. It is a categorical version of the scatterplot, which is used to investigate the linear relationship between two variables. A contingency table is indeed a type of frequency distribution table that displays two variables at the same time.
Binomial Distribution
Binomial is an algebraic expression of the sum or the difference of two terms. Before knowing about binomial distribution, we must know about the binomial theorem.

**Problem Set: Logarithmic and Exponential Equations**
**Objective**: Solve and approximate solutions to the nearest thousandth.
**Problems**
1. **Solve the following equations**:
a. \(\log_3(3x - 4) = 5\)
- **Explanation**: Solve for \(x\) in the logarithmic equation. This involves converting the logarithmic form into an exponential form and solving for the variable.
b. \(10^{-5x} = 76\)
- **Explanation**: Solve for \(x\) by taking the logarithm of both sides to deal with the exponential expression.
c. \(2 \cdot 5^x + 3 = 63\)
- **Explanation**: Start by isolating the exponential term and then solve for \(x\) using logarithmic techniques.
d. \(2 \log(5x) - 3 = 1\)
- **Explanation**: Solve for \(x\) by first isolating the logarithmic expression and then solving the equation.
