In a population of 100,000 people, 10,000 are infected with a virus. After a person becomes infected and then recovers, the person is immune (cannot become infected again). Of the people who are infected, 4% will die each year and the others will recover. Of the people who have never been infected, 20% will become infected each year. How many people will be infected in 4 years? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
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.
