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.

Let x be a random variable that represents the weights in kilograms (kg) of healthy adult female deer (does) in December in a national park. Then x has a distribution that is approximately normal with mean u = 57.0 kg and standard deviation o = 7.9 kg. Suppose a doe that weighs less than 48 kg is considered undernourished. (a) What is the probability that a single doe captured (weighed and released) at random in December is undernourished? (Round your answer to four decimal places.) (b) If the park has about 2350 does, what number do you expect to be undernourished in December? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.) does (c) To estimate the health of the December doe population, park rangers use the rule that the average weight of n = 55 does should be more than 54 kg.
