Management at Washington Hospital Center is thinking about two investments. One is an MRI machine, which can make $100,000 in good economic conditions or $60,000 in bad economic conditions. Another is a CT scanner, which can make $150,000 in good economic conditions or $10,000 in bad economic conditions. Thus, the decision depends on the economic conditions. What is the probability of good economic conditions that equates the two investments? a. Develop a payoff table for this situation. b. Find the following: Maximax Maximin Equal likelihood Minimax regret

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.
