USA today reported that about 20% of all people in the United States are illiterate. Suppose you take eight people a random off of the city street. How many people would you need to interview to be 95% sure that at least seven of these people can read and write
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.
