Where do you live?

Near the 69 million baht-500 million baht 30 year lease condos..Rajdamri

I think I read that a fortune teller was arrested as bogus..Do they have exams or something.

.In a similar vein..Why do aliens never abduct an intelligent Person ?

MUCH BETTER . Never go anywhere not on BTS/MRT ?

Can order Pizza and KFC

Watch Premier League

Supermarkets..did u ever try shopping at the mom and pop's everything unpriced and covered in dust ?

I first came here unofficially, chasing Chinese over the Malaya border, with the Hampshires 1955

Officially 1973.and I'm "hard core" twice over.

Told me to google "The Secretary Problem" I did but I'm less wiser now

Big C have but too short, need 6 footAny Help please ?

Some fancy Wiring..IEE Regs ?

She now says that the ribbon is a lemniscate and knowledge of it's properties are necessary for arterial branching in heart surgery...stone me I

Nothing to with BKK, moved to pub forum.

I meant the clamour and drivel on the TV (Television)

Press the tv/radio button, then Channel 30 BBC World Radio.. Sanity reigns

Probability is ordinarily used to describe an attitude of mind towards some proposition of whose truth we are not certain.^[1] The proposition of interest is usually of the form "Will a specific event occur?" The attitude of mind is of the form "How certain are we that the event will occur?" The certainty we adopt can be described in terms of a numerical measure and this number, between 0 and 1, we call probability.^[2] The higher the probability of an event, the more certain we are that the event will occur. Thus, probability in an applied sense is a measure of the likeliness that a random event will occur.

The concept has been given an axiomatic mathematical derivation in probability theory, which is used extensively in such areas of study as mathematics, statistics, finance, gambling, science, artificial intelligence/machine learning and philosophy to, for example, draw inferences about the likeliness of events. Probability is used to describe the underlying mechanics and regularities of complex systems.

She is wrong probability can be greater than '1' when other figures are brought into the calculus.

Probability is the measure of mathematic theory and how likely an event is.

The number of ways event ( a = 131 )+( y = 2 )+( x = 1 x 2 x 2 x1 ) times can occur is the total number of possible outcomes.

Yes but now she says that such trivial problems were just to to test me and unknowingly TV

She says a more interesting problem is ... Every year on the King’s birthday a prisoner is pardoned if he correctly can pick the highest number or the lowest number among 131 different numbers that are read aloud.

The numbers are written on 131 slips of paper and mixed. The warden draws a slip at random and announces the number and the prisoner decides whether it is the highest, the lowest or neither, in which case a new slip is drawn. This goes on until the prisoner makes a choice or the slips are exhausted.

What strategy should the prisoner follow to optimize his chance for pardon and what is the probability for that?

Achieve the highest probability of accepting a "good" one, and what is that probability.

Answer 1. Highest probability is 32.75 to 2 chance.

2. A 32.75 % probability.

Calculus of how far up the wall can the ladder reach, by calculation ?

Let (L ) be one such tangent line i.e. ladder with y - wall ( 2m, yL ) and x - edge ( xL, 2m ); therefore slope of L is ( yL - 2m) / (2m - yL) = (yL - 2m) / (2m - ayL) = -1/a, as long as (xL, yL) = (2,0sqm); therefore the slope of the tangent line of L is independent of the point, giving us the equation dy/dx = -1/a, y = (-1/a)x + c, for arbitrary constant c. In the exceptional case, the x - intercept edge and y – intercept wall of every tangent line ( L )are zero so y = mx,= ( 1.7267795 m.)

With the last one the answer is in the picture.

Sh says no probabiliy is greater than 1

She likes the ladder answer

She says if the answer is in the picture, what is it ?

A Thai girl who I met recently in Soi Cowboy told me she is a math student, and being a helpful soul, suggested I could help her. Some Old Hens Can Always Hide Their Old Age sort of stuff I thought.

She gave me these 3 problems, is she having me on, or should I make my excuses and leave?

1. 131 slips of paper, 2 are "good". Allowing one drawn at a time and the option of accepting or rejecting to view, and no replacement, what is the best strategy to achieve the highest probability of accepting a "good" one, and what is that probability.

2. A ladder is placed against a wall and touches the wall, the ground and the edge of a structure which abuts the wall and is 2mx2mx2m.

How far up the wall can the ladder reach, by calculation ?

3. The image shows a ribbon, show 'a' to 15 consecutive decimal places.

Letter from friend genuine

"Got back home safe & sound again.

Sorry I never got to meet up with you again but the GF needed me more - Her 15 year old brother was beaten up in her village, he received a fractured skull & was in a coma until he died a few hours later, Her father who had been shot in Burma a few months ago also died, a double cremation.

It now transpires that her mother & 5 year old brother who died earlier this year were both poisoned by the mother's ex-boyfriend who also killed the 15 year old brother - He was also responsible for cutting the brakes on GF's scooter which caused her to crash resulting in her loosing the twins.

He is now in jail.

It appears that he got it into his head that by eliminating the entire family & myself, then their property & money would eventually go to him.

Out of a family of 6 at the start of the year & unborn twins making it potentially 8, now only the GF & an older brother survive."

The road which has the Children's Discovery Centre,,on the pavement 1000's of turtles about 10 baht each..80 baht in pattaya

I trust they are not for soup

I need to live in a qualifying country to get the increases over the last x years to my UK pension

The closest/cheapest is the Phillippines, but any qualifying country, mostly Europe is OK

I have a hi-so studio in bkk and a not so hi-so on the beach south of jomtien

if u are interested to exchange, please pm me

thank you
