What do you understand by tabulation in statistics for management subject?

Bear in mind that there is a difference of approach which may at first seem strange to students in sociology and related subjects. Most surveys are conducted by personal interview with respondents, and most analysis is of a descriptive kind, taking the people themselves as units of analysis. Another, and more rigorous approach, is what we call explanatory, in which we attempt to explain rather than describe, and in which we look at variables rather than people. Both approaches are dealt with here

What is the equation for calculating the probability of intelligent life on other planets?

There are limits here as regards what characters can be posted. Use the link below to see the Drake equation. What the Drake equation is designed to calculate is the number N, where N is the number of civilizations in our galaxy with which communication might be possible. The equation is an interesting one, but it is full of variables over which any number of investigators can debate and attempt to agree on. In this light, the equation cannot yield a "number" that we can post and point to while saying, "That's how many planets have intelligent life on them that we can communicate with."


What is probability of NOT winning if the chances of winning is 0.008 and you try 110 times?

The chance of not winning on one attempt is 1 - 0.008 = 0.992 The chance of not winning over 110 attempts is therefore 0.992110, since you must fail every time. 0.992110 = 0.413 (to three decimal places). (It follows that 0.587 is the chance of winning on at least one attempt.)

What do you do if I am not happy in a relationship?

Answer If you're not happy in the relationship you need to question why and whether you should stay in the relationship or not. If you love the person and would like to work things out then you should talk to them in an attempt to make things better between you. If you are not in love with them there is really no reason to stay in the relationship.
