A researcher notes that there seems to be a difference in the prevalence of individuals who are medication adherent and have high levels of education along with a high health literacy and the prevalence of individuals who are not medication adherent and have low levels of education along with a low health literacy. Use the appropriate hypothesis to determine if education level and health literacy status are related (independent) at the 5%.

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.
