Concept explainers

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.

Each time a shopper purchases a tube of toothpaste, he either choose brand A or brand B. Suppose that for each purchase after the 1st, the probability is 1/3 that he will choose the same brand that he chose on his preceding purchase and the probability is 2/3 that he will switch brands. If he's equally likely to choose either brand A or brand B on his first purchase, what is the probability that both his 1st and 2nd purchases will be brand A and both his 3rd and 4th purchases will be brand B?
In a population of 10,000, there are 5000 nonsmokers, 2500 smokers of one pack or less per day, and 2500 smokers of more than one pack per day. During any month, there is a 6% probability that a nonsmoker will begin smoking a pack or less per day, and a 4% probability that a nonsmoker will begin smoking more than a pack per day. For smokers who smoke a pack or less per day, there is a 10% probability of quitting and a 10% probability of increasing to more than a pack per day. For smokers who smoke more than a pack per day, there is an 8% probability of quitting and a 10% probability of dropping to a pack or less per day. How many people will be in each group in 1 month, in 2 months, and in 1 year? (Round your answers to the nearest whole number.)

Michael wants to take French or Spanish, or both. But classes are closed, and he must apply and get accepted to be allowed to enroll in a language class. He has a 50% chance of being admitted to French, a 50% chance of being admitted to Spanish, and a 20% chance of being admitted to both French and Spanish. If he applies to both French and Spanish, the probability that he will be enrolled in French or Spanish (or possibly both) is 0.65 0.70 0.80 0.82

For smokers who smoke a pack or less per day, there is a 10% probability of quitting and a 10% probability of increasing to more than a pack per day. For smokers who smoke more than a pack per day, there is a 7% probability of quitting and a 10% probability of dropping to a pack or less per day. How many people will be in each group in 1 month?
Mason drives to school for his class on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. He prefers to park in Parking Lot A because it is next to his classroom building, but he is not always able to find a spot there. If it's sunny the probability that he finds a spot is 0.72 but if it's raining more people drive, so the probability that he finds a spot is only 0.44. Whether he finds a spot in Lot A is independent from one day to the next. (a) On a sunny day, what is the probability that Mason does not find a spot in Lot A? (b) In a week that is sunny on Monday and Friday and raining on Wednesday, what is the probability that Mason does not find a spot in Lot A on any of the three days? (Round your answer to four decimal places.) (c) In a week that is sunny on Monday and Friday and raining on Wednesday, what is the probability that Mason finds a spot in Lot A on at least one of the three days? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
