A rainy year is 80% likely to be followed by a rainy year and a drought is 60% likely to be followed by another drought year. Suppose the rainfall condition is known for the initial year to be ‘rainy’. Then the vector ? 0 = 10 gives probabilities of rainy and drought for known initial year
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.
A rainy year is 80% likely to be followed by a rainy year and a drought is 60% likely to be followed by another drought year. Suppose the rainfall condition is known for the initial year to be ‘rainy’. Then the
