A dietary supplement in tablet form is sold in boxes that should ideally contain 100 tablets. The weight of an arbitrary tablet can be considered as one random variable with expectation value 1 gram and standard deviation 0.05 gram. (The manufacturing process is not perfect.) When packaging, pour tablets first on a scale until the weight exceeds 100g and packaged then. (Assume that the scale is accurate.) Approximately determine the probability that an arbitrary box contains at least 100 tablets. (Management: one box contains at least 100 tablets over and over again the weight of 99 tablets is less than 100g.)
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.
