The average number of deaths from lung cancer in a certain population per year has been observed to be 8. If the number of deaths from the disease follows a Poisson distribution, what is the probability that during the current year fifteen or more people will die from lung cancer?
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.
