What is the probability that the employee is not late for work? Please write your answer in decimal form, rounded to three decimal places.
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.
Suppose that an employee at a local company checks his watch and realizes that he has 10 minutes to get to work on time. If he leaves now and does not get stopped by any traffic lights, he will arrive at work in exactly 8 minutes. In between his house and his work there are three traffic lights, A, B, and C. Each light that stops him will cause him to arrive an additional 2 minutes later. The following table displays the
| Traffic light A | Traffic light B | Traffic light C |
|---|---|---|
| ?(?)P(A) | ?(?)P(B) | ?(?)P(C) |
| 0.8 | 0.1 | 0.4 |
