The number of accidents that occur at a certain intersection known as "Crash Corner" on a Monday afternoon between the hours of 1 P.M. and 4 P.M., along with the corresponding probabilities, are shown in the following table. Find the expected number of accidents during the period in question.
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.
