Earthquakes in Sumatra occur according to a Poisson process of rateλ= 2/year. Condi-tioned on the event that exactly two earthquakes take place in a year, what is the probabilitythat both earthquakes occur in the first three months of the year? (for simplicity, assume allmonths have 30 days, and each year has 12 months, i.e., 360 days)
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.
