A process produces strings of Christmas tree lights that historically have experienced a defective rate of 4%. A customer has placed an order for 140 strings of lights. Use the normal approximation to the binomial distribution to answer parts a through e. What is the probability that exactly 10 strings in this order will be defective? The probability is-----.
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.
