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.

Find the probability of getting exactly 1 girl in 8 births. B. Find the probability of getting 1 or fewer girls in 8 births. C. Which probability is relevant for determining whether 1 is a significantly low number of girls in 8 births: the result from part (a) or part (b)? A. Since the probability of getting 1 girl is the result from part (a), this is the relevant probability. B.Since the probability of getting 0 girls is less likely than getting 1 girl, the result from part (a) is the relevant probability. C.Since getting 0 girls is an even lower number of girls than getting 1 girl, the result from part (b) is the relevant probability. This is the correct answer.
