A rare genetic disease is known to be carried by 20 people among 10000 people in the society. a) In a random sample of 1000 people, calculate the probability that less than 2 carry the disease? (Please solve this section with Binomial distribution) a) In a random sample of 2000 people, calculate the probability that more than 5 carry the disease? (Please solve this section with Poisson distribution) c) If people are randomly tested for the disease, what is the probability that the first person who is found to carry the disease is the sixth person?
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.
