It is the first trimester, don't worry it might get better in the 2nd and 3rd, i had a little bit of heart burn too, but did not pay it any attention, would drink lots of water and reduce, beans, akara, moin-moin, spicy food, they all trigger and add more to it.

Maths ain't that bad ya know.
If you can master maths then physics ain't gonna be a problem
I know jare, i am more of an art/ business person, and seeing maths cropping up under a disguise ''statistics'' is making me have goose bumps all over. cool cool cool

I am the last person you should be asking for help re mathematics. I turned down an admission in nigeria to study engineering because I sucked in maths and physics but was good in biology and chemistry hence my profession.
So you go schoolhuh?? i no know oooo!!! smiley smiley smiley smiley

I hate maths hen!!!, now i loathe physics, i can manage chemistry,, ihad to drop sciences because of my physics teacher, the worst teacher in the whole universe, instead of teaching, he would be preaching,

These are the characteristics of a binomial process to toss an unbiased coin:

1. Each outcome must be classified as a success (p) or a failure (r),
2. The probability distribution is discrete.
3. Each trial is independent and therefore the probability of success and the probability of failure is the same for each trial.

Can't remember the rest but i think there are 6 of them.
Thank you Blank, did you google this up, because na so i give the lecturer word for word, comma for comma smiley smiley smiley smiley thank you again.

Thank you guys, thank you for your help, i just carried ''Miss-Ife's reply to the lecturer although i added my own ajasa to it.

Asper the 1st question, i definitely would not open the shop because if i am making $ 262. as opposed to the $300.00 i would be needing to pay for expenses and revenue for half a day, then full day would be about $600.00 and if the shop attracts only 15% of the 500 customers for any given day, then i will be making $262. and some change for the whole day, therefore the business would be more in a loss than making profit.

[quote author=Miss_Ife link=topic=886908.msg10336427#msg10336427 date=1330978113]Ok, let me try that one, though my head is rusty too grin

1/ Your shop draws 15% of total customer on any given day, which make 0.15*500 = 75 customers on saturday mornings
Out of those 75 customers only 35% will make a purchase of 10$ or more, which means 75*0.35= 26.25 customers
therefore, statistically, you'd make a minimum of 26.25*10=262.25$ per saturday morning.
This is just under 300$, but this is a minimum (10$ or more) so you'd probably need to calculate it again with the average amount customers spend in the shop to know if you would make profit or not.

2/The probability is still 1/2, the previous "events" do not influence the result. In terms of probability, whether you flip a coin for the 150th time or the first time, there is always just 1/2 chance for it to show tail.

now, tell me, why those maths, ronke? wink[/quote]Miss Ife, wow am just seeinhg your response, thank you jare!!!! i will copy and paste your answer cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy, my dear it is for my programme oooo, i have to do statistics and i hate maths with a passion, i only cram formular and drop for the lecturer faa!!! but this analysis pass my power, that was why i was like let me reach out to every,

softy:
let me try:
15% of 500 = 75
U need 30 ppl to make $300.00 within 35% of the total time u opened the shop, then the probability is (30/75 ) = 0.4
my final answer is 0.4
Softy you are right, the probability, has to be less than one. hmm, now i see two different answers, knight and softy, smiley smiley but the same concept,

Hey guys, please i need the maths gurus in the house to help out with this problem, i know it is the simplest of all, but my head too rust to even think right now. infact there are two questions so enjoy!!!

1. Let's say you run a small retail shop in a shopping mall and you are considering whether or not you will stay open on a Saturday morning. You know that a customer on entering the store it likely to make a purchase of $10.00 or more 35% of the time. The remainder of the time they will look around and leave without making a purchase. Your shop draws about 15% of total shoppers on any given day. You also expect from information that you have gathered from mall sources that there are about 500 people in the mall on a Saturday morning. You know you need to have about $300.00 in revenue to cover expenses and profit for a half day on Saturday morning and the question is should you open the shop? ( What is the probability that at least 30 shoppers entering your store of the total will make a purchase of $10.00 or more?)

2.
Let's ask a binomial question, folks. Let's say that you have flipped a coin 25 times and the results are Heads 15, Tails 10. What is the probability of obtaining a Tail on the next flip of the coin? That's one, now to what characteristics are present in a binomial process that ensures this result?

thanks guys.

Speak for your husband and your culture. Such things happen when you are married to an eediot and not man. Where I come from, the men pay for the wedding. I was a student when i got  married and even if i wasnt, i wouldn't contribute a dime. My parents are free to contribute if they want to but not me. My husband married me and not the other way around. I am not paying for any wedding because i am not desperate. The girls family contribute because they want to not because they have to. And not all men ridicule their inlaw. Some of these so called men Marry into very wealthy family so they will have to think twice before making unnecessary mouth.

And yea, my husband has a very strong relationship with his in-laws, my mum calls him her rival because if the strong bond he has with my father. So stop generalizing ronke
Just saw your reply this morning!! Jenny, you need to learn how to talk to people without throwing insults both directly and indirectly. As we all know i am yoruba, and when i talk, i talk from the experience i have as a yoruba to an extent. Sorry if your culture allows only the men todo or pay for everything, that is why majority of the women do not have a ''say'' in their marraiges because they have been completely bought. If i am from a ''well-to-do'' family, whether culture or not, why would i want my husband to single handedly pay for the wedding that i will be the one enjoying in the first place?. My parents would  not want to leave the whole burden to the man, even if he is  Adenuga's son or Adenuga himself. So desperation has nothing to do with contributing something  to your own wedding.

Nope!!! i actually did not forget the emoticons, i left it out on purpose, stop reading backwards.

Now!!! you are talking,  you have seen where such happens, me oooo i have never seen a mother misbehaving to her daughter or daughter's husband, but i have heard stories.

So if this is the case,  then it is a different story entirely, now we cannot ascertain if this is the case or not, you are concluding from your own exeprience i am concluding from mine, so do you see the differences in our thought lines??

No matter what happens between me and my hubby, i cannot pack my load and follow my hubby because ''my mother said so'', now, if the condition at home is beginning to threaten my life, i can ask my mum to come and pack my belongings, infact i will not wait for her to come, i am so on my way.

The poster might be right about the MIL, but i see he is so concerned more about her and not what the wife thinks. and that was why i said, he should talk to the wife. His issues are with his wife not MIL.

^^^^^ Oh no!!! you did not hit any nerve at all, don't even flatter yourself, i just ommitted those emoticons (or whatever it is called) on purpose so you will not see me laughing at what i was reading.


Puhlease!!!! spare me you advice of ''throwing words into the trash can" infact you can feel my teeth digging deep into the rough skin of yours smiley smiley smiley, Time has changed my dear, one has to be wiser, when i joined NL, i guess i was still emotionally immature, because i came with my temper all up in the xceiling because of the way people teared at each other, ( me personally) i have learnt from this forum and it has helped me to put so many things in check and practise empathy most times. ( can't say much for you though, you are still the same) tongue tongue tongue

Jenny, look at this scenerio well, you born pickin, you still dey hospital oooo, is it possible for you mum to come and take you away from your hubby and you will pack and follow her huh just like that!!!! Jenny say the truth and let the devil; be ashamed.

The MIL and her daughter illegally took away that child. That is kidnapping and it is a crime.

The court only can decide who keeps the child/children in case on a proper divorce and not a runaway wife.

The Traditional wedding and introduction

Is that not wedding on its own?
Well he has given the girls family the things they required, what of what the wife herself wants?, wedding makes no difference to men, but to a woman it makes all the difference in the world, it is a sense of pride for a woman to be properly wedded, i really cannot trade any affection for it, I can say '' my husband'' confidently, without thinking ''oops we are yet to do our wedding'' i see it as an emotional torture.

3. traditional smiley
4. church.
All of the above is not expensive at all, na the party be d koko.
