On a busy day you are heading to the office and want to reach early. You are on the wrong side of the road and the next intersection is far away, and you have decided to make a U-turn. But you do not want to get caught by the police cars which arrive according to a Poisson distribution with rate λλ. You will make a U- turn only if the road has been clear for ττ time units. Let NN be the number of cars you see before the U-turn. Find E[N].
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.
