Your company subcontracts a part from two suppliers (X and Y). Not all parts have uniform quality. Supplier and Quality probabilities are shown in this two-way contingency table: High Usable Defective X 0.5611 0.0052 0.0012 Y 0.4305 0.0015 0.0005 If a part is selected at random, what is the probability that the part is defective
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.

High | Usable | Defective | |
X | 0.5611 | 0.0052 | 0.0012 |
Y | 0.4305 | 0.0015 | 0.0005 |
If a part is selected at random, what is the probability that the part is defective? (Enter your answer as a decimal rounded to 4 digits, ex: 0.1234.)
