Tendulkar is playing a cricket tournament in which each player can play 200 balls and the player who hits maximum sixes wins. Tendulkar hits a six on the first ball, but misses out on the second. After that, the probability that he hits a six is equal the proportion of sixes that he has hit so far. For example, at the third ball, the probability is 1/2. (a) What is the probability that Tendulkar hits only one six? (b) What is the probability that Tendulkar hits 100 sixes?
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.
