Every morning Sheldon pesters his friends to give him a lift to work. The probability that he will get a lift is 0.7. Considering a working week of 5 days, what is the probability that Sheldon will get exactly 3 lifts? How many lifts will he get on average?
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.
