n Galileo’s time people thought that when three dice were rolled, a sum of 9 and sum of 10 had same probability since each could be obtained in 6 ways: 9: 1+2+6, 1+3+5, 1+4+4, 2+2+5, 2+3+4, 3+3+3 10: 1+3+6, 1+4+5, 2+4+4, 2+3+5, 2+2+6,3+3+4. Compute the probabilities of these sums and show that 10 is a more likely total than 9.
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.
