A class contains 30 students. The probability of failing in one of the courses for each student is 0.02, but there is no chance to fail in more than one course. You know that a student failed in a course, the probability that the fail reason in non-attendance is 0.015. All other fail reasons are low average. The examinations are private, so the results are mutually independent. Let X and Y be the numbers of failed students due to non-attendance and due to low average, respectively, in that class this semester.
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.
