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 re…

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.

ball is drawn from one of three urns depending on the outcomeof a roll of a dice. If the dice shows a 1, a ball is drawn from Urn I, whichcontains 2 black balls and 3 white balls. If the dice shows a 2 or 3, a ballis drawn from Urn II, which contains 1 black ball and 3 white balls. Ifthe dice shows a 4, 5, or 6, a ball is drawn from Urn III, which contains1 black ball and 2 white balls. (i) What is the probability to draw a black ball? [7 Marks]Hint. Use the partition rule.(ii) Assume that a black ball is drawn. What is the probabilitythat it came from Urn I? [4 Marks]Total marks 11 Hint. Use Bayes’ rule
