The number of earthquakes in a certain highly seismically active area is Poisson random variable with mean value of 1 in two year-period. a) Find the probability that no earthquake will take place either this year or next year b) Find the probability that at least one earthquake will take place just within one year from now
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.
