In one version of a popular lottery game, a player selects six of the numbers from 1 to 54. The agency in charge of the lottery also selects six numbers. What is the probability that the player will match the six numbers if two tickets are purchased? (This jackpot is worth at least $2 million in prize money and grows according to the number of tickets sold.)
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.
