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.

A poker player holds a flush when all five cards in the hand belong to the same suit (clubs, diamonds, hearts, or spades). We will find the probability of a flush when five cards are drawn in succession from the top of the deck. Remember that a deck contains 52 cards, 13 of each suit, and that when the deck is well shuffled, each card drawn is equally likely to be any of those that remain in the deck. The probability of drawing five spades in succession from the top of the deck is the product of the five probabilities you have found. Why? The probability of a flush in spades is the product of the probabilities due to the general multiplication rule which applies for determining the probability of dependent events occurring simultaneously. the multiplication rule for independent events which applies for determining the probability of at least one or more dependent events occurring. the general multiplication rule which applies for determining the…
Suppose you have three bowls, X, Y , and Z with some number of red and blue balls. Bowl X has 2 red and 2 blue balls, bowl Y has 1 red and 3 blue balls, and bowl Z has 3 red and 1 blue ball. A bowl is chosen at random and a ball is drawn from it. What is the probability that the ball was drawn from bowl X given the ball was blue?
In regular poker where each player is dealt a 5-card hand (no river of sharedcards), what is the probability that you get a two-pair? (A two-pair is a hand with onepair of the same rank, one pair of a different rank, and a single card of a third rank. Forexample, 7 Clubs, 7 Diamonds, 2 Hearts, 2 Spades, K Diamonds.)

However, other pairs also exist in poker: Two-pair: Two cards have one rank, two cards have another rank, and the remaining card has a third rank. e.g. 2♥, 2♠, 5♥, 5♣, ��♦ Three-of-a-kind: Three cards have one rank and the remaining two cards have two other ranks. e.g. 2♥, 2♠, 2♣, 5♣, ��♦ Calculate the probability of each type of hand.
