A survey consists of asking kids in a particular neighborhood how many houses they visited while trick-or-treating. Theresults are given below: number of houses visited 0 1-5 6-10 11-20 more than 20 Numbers of kids 5 15 25 45 40 a) Find the (empirical) probability distribution table for the above experiment.b) Based on the experiment, what is the (empirical) probability that a randomly selected kid will visit 6-10 houses?c) Based on the experiment, what is the (empirical) probability that a randomly selected kid will visit more than 5 houses?
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 survey consists of asking kids in a particular neighborhood how many houses they visited while trick-or-treating. The
results are given below:
number of houses visited | 0 | 1-5 | 6-10 | 11-20 | more than 20 |
Numbers of kids | 5 | 15 | 25 | 45 | 40 |
a) Find the (empirical)
b) Based on the experiment, what is the (empirical) probability that a randomly selected kid will visit 6-10 houses?
c) Based on the experiment, what is the (empirical) probability that a randomly selected kid will visit more than 5 houses?
