We know that a radio active source is emitting particles according to a Poisson distribution with 14 particles expected to be emitted per minute. The source is observed and the X= the time until the first particle is released is recorded. What is the probability that the time until the first particle is emitted is more than 15 seconds (.25 minutes)? Round your answer to 4 decimal places.

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.
