Suppose that 40% of fruit flies possess a certain gene. We will randomly select fruit flies until we have found 3 flies with the gene. Let Y = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, be the random variable defined as the number of flies we must be select so that we obtain three flies with the gene. If f(y) denotes the probability function for Y, find f(8).
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.
