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.

Suppose you want to find out how many people support Policy X. A standard polling approach is to just ask N many people whether or not they support Policy X, and take the fraction of people who say yes as an estimate of the probability that any one person supports the policy. Suppose that the probability someone supports the policy is p, which you do not know. Let pn be the number of people polled who supported the policy, divided by the total number of people polled N.
If the probability that a professor correctly writes a slide is 0.80, what is the probability that at least 6 out of 8 slides are correct? Round your answer to two decimal places. Write your answer as a fraction not as a percentage (i.e. write as 0.38 not as 38%).
A poll reported that 62% of adults were satisfied with the job the major airlines were doing. Suppose 25 adults are selected at random and the number who are satisfied is recorded. Complete parts (a) through (e) below. (a) Explain why this is a binomial experiment. Choose the correct answer below. OA. This is a binomial experiment because there are three mutually exclusive outcomes for each trial, there is a fixed number of trials, the outcome of one trial does not affect the outcome of another, and the probability of success is the same for each trial. C OB. This is a binomial experiment because there are two mutually exclusive outcomes for each trial, there is a random number of trials, the outcome of one trial does not affect the outcome of another, and the probability of success is the same for each trial.
