In any given turn while playing a board game, the probability that a player will land on a blue square is 0.300. If the probability of winning a second turn and landing on a blue square is 0.036, are the two independent? A) No, since the probability that both events occur is a nonzero B) Yes, since 0.036 < 0.120 and 0.036 < 0.300 C) No, since 0.120 + 0.300 ≠ 0.036 D) Yes, since 0.120(0.300) =

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.
