You are eating a plateful of fried Shishito peppers. Most Shishito peppers are not very spicy, but about 1 in 10 are very spicy (for this question, assume it is exactly 1 in 10). You have a plate of 15 Shishito peppers. Let X be the number of very spicy Shishito peppers on your plate. What is the distribution of X? Write the pmf f(x) and describe its parameters. What key assumptions about the peppers are needed to determine this distribution?
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.
