One of the problems encountered in organ transplants is rejection by the body of the transplanted tissue, tendency of the white blood cells to attack the foreign tissue. The key to reception or rejection is the nature of the antigens attached to the tissue cells. If the antigens of the donor and receiver match, the body will accept the transplanted tissueThe probability of a match in siblings is 0.25. Suppose you need a kidney, and you have two brothers and three sisters. If siblings offer a kidney, what is the probability that least two donor's antigens will match?

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.

You are given a two dice with 4 sides each, with equal probability of landong on all sides. Dice one has values 1 - 4 and the second has values 5-8. The low-valued die (dice one) is rolled first. If you get a 1 or 2, then you roll the high-valued die (dice 2). If you get 3 or 4, you roll the low-valued die.

In women’s tennis, a player must win 2 out of 3 sets to win a match. If a player wins the first 2 sets, she wins the match and the third set is not played. Player V and Player M will compete in a match. Player V and Player M have competed against each other many times. Historical data show that each player is equally likely to win the first set. If Player V wins the first set, the probability that she will win the second set is 0.60. If Player V loses the first set, the probability that she will lose the second set is 0.70. If Player V wins exactly one of the first two sets, the probability that she will win the third set is 0.45. What is the probability that Player V will win a match against Player M?

In a football match, there is a new striker on the Juventus side. The probability that the new striker will score goal today is three times higher than scoring none. Rakin and his friends are watching this match. Rakin tells his friends that the new striker is left footed as he read about him in an article; but, some friends are not believing him. The match is about to start and on the screen there is a note saying opponent defenders of Juventus are strong against right footed strikers. So, the probability of the striker being left footed will be five times higher if the striker scores a goal than scoring none. When match started, Rakin and his friends saw that the new striker is left footed. What is the probability that the striker will score today?

XYZ Construction Company has three loaders operating every day in a construction site. During any day, each loader that is operating at the beginning of the day has a 0.25 chance of breaking down. If a loader breaks down during the day, it is sent to a repair station and will be working (operational) two days after it breaks down. (Thus, if a loader breaks down during day 3, it will be working at the beginning of day 5. Let the state of the system be the number of operational loaders at the beginning of the day. How many states does the system have?
