Please help, math homework problem.?

I need help w/this prob.





You are on a trip to one of the cartesian islands. In the cellar of your cabin you have found an old map that claims to hold the secret location of buried treasure. The map shows four trees at location A, B, C, %26amp; D. The trees A %26amp; D are along an east-west road running through island. The tree at B is directly north of the tree at A, and the tree at C is directly north of the tree at D.





The maps directions say to trace a path from the tree at B to the tree at D, and to do the same for the trees at A and C. The treasure is buried halfwy between the intersection of these paths (point E) %26amp; the road. Because 3 small lakes dot the island, you r only able to measure the distances between B and D, A and C, %26amp; A%26amp;D:





B to D=300 paces


A to C=260 paces


A to D=240 paces





To find the location of th treasure you must find the distance from E to teh road %26amp; then walk 1/2 that distance from E. How far is E from the road %26amp; how far is is E from the buried treasure?

Please help, math homework problem.?
Draw extra lines, think outside the box as to how you can make right triangles. Use the numbers provided and draw a graph as close to scale as you can (In other words, make sure the dist from A to D looks longer than the dist from A to B. This will help you visualize. Then draw lines that can help you form right triangles (especially those that have two know lengths) use the pythagorean theorum and that should give you some help. Start by extending the D to C line further north until it is exactly east of point B. This new point we'll call F. Now you can figure out B to C because you know C to F is exactly 80. (A to B minus D to C) C to F is 80, B to F is 240 which makes B to C 253. It'll take some time, but you'll get it.

Can anyone help me please?

The scale on a map reads 4 cm = 30 miles. If the actual distance between two cities is 120 miles, what is the distance on the map?


A) 8 cm





B) 16 cm





C) 12 cm





D) 24 cm

Can anyone help me please?
The answer is B





4/30 = x/120





30x=480





480/30=16





x=16
Reply:4 cm=30 miles





120 miles = x





4/x=30/120


30x=480


30x=30=480/30


x=16 cm
Reply:Eh. you should be asking why the answer is what it is. B is the right answer, but because you have to cross multiply using a proportion. 4 = 30, 8 = 60, 16 = 120. Just doubled the values twice, or u can put then into a proportion/cross multiply...
Reply:16 cm. 120/30 = 4, 4 x 4 = 16
Reply:B
Reply:The answer is B.


Think about it: 4 cm = 30 miles.


Therefore 8 cm = 60 miles.


12 cm = 90 miles


16 cm = 120 miles


See? What grade are you in? You should have been able to figure that out. That is 2nd grade work.
Reply:The answer is 16 cm. 120m is four times thirty, so four times 4cm is 16.

"Just the answers will do"???????????????





Please do your own homework. If you don't know how to do it- asking for help with that would be more appropriate.
Reply:1.a.the representative fraction is :


1:1.25(i.e.,1cm=5/4km)


b.1 cm on the map is 1.25km


therefore, 9.4cm on the map is


9.4*1.25=11.75km


c.64km^2=%26gt;a square of sides 8 km each


8 km in the map will be


0.8*8=6.4 cm.


therefore a square with sides 6.4 cm is to be drawn


2. the volume in the first cylinder is equal to the volume in the


second cylinder.


pi*8*8*5=pi*5*5*h


320=25h


h=12.8cm


3.(2x+1)(x-1)=90


2x^2-x-91=0


x=7,(-26/4)
Reply:1 a) 4cm/5km=4cm/500000cm=1/125000 it is unitless


b) 9.4x125000cm or 9.4x1.25km=11.75km


c) 64=8x8/1.25x1.25=7.04cm*2


2.V1=pie X r*2 X h =3.14x64x5=1004.8cum


hence 1004.8=pie X r'*2 Xh


1004.8=3.14x25xh


h=1004.8/3.14x25


=100480/7850


=12.8cm


3. A= (2x+1)(x-1)=90

(a) The distance AB


(b) The distance BC








2)Two boats X and Y, sailing in the race. Boat X is 145 due North of buoy B. Boat Y is due East of buoy B. Boat X and Y are 320m apart calculate:


(a) the distance BY


(b) the bearing of Y and X


(c) the bearing of X and Y

...maths...?
75 / sin 245* = X / sin25* So X(sin 245*) = 75(sin 25*) Then X =75(sin25*) / sin 245* Either using a chart or calculator do the rest. * = degrees. To figure BY you use the Pythagorean Therom which is A^2 + B^2 = C^2 or 320^2 = 145^2 + X^2 or approx 285 m 320/sin 90* = 285(sin x*) 320/ sin 90* =285 / sin x* 320 / 285 (sin 90*) = 1/ sin x* 320 (sin x*) / 285 (sin 90*) = 1 again use a chart or calc. to do the rest

Linear algebra (linear maps)?

IIf you guys could double check my work...i can't make it to my profs office hours and the homework is due the same day as the exam. No time to find out if i have no idea what i'm doing


or not.





V is a subspace of C(R) spanned by {1,x,e^-x,cos2x,sin2x}...These are linearly independent so are a basis.





The map is d/dx :V--%26gt; V





a. determine matrix representation [d/dx] with respect to the given basis.





sooo basically


d/dx: {1,x,e^-x,cos2x, sin2x} = {0,1,-e^-x, -2sin2x, 2cos2x}





and i figured it was a 5X5 matrix with


a11=0


a22 = 1


a33 = -e^-x


a44= -2*sin 2x


a55 = 2*cos 2x....the rest all zeros








b. Determine bases for the kernel and image.





Little confused here





So the kernal is the value of 1


so the basis is


{1,0,0,0,0}





The image is the rest of the values...so


{0,x,0,0,0}


{0,0,e^-x,0,0} ........ etc

What's the difference between a mapped drive and shortcut to the server?

Hi





I am baffled by the reply I got from customer support for a software we use at the office.





Basically: What is the real value of mapping a drive versus sharing a folder?





Thanks


--------------------------------------...


Answer gotten: You need to run PI from a folder WITHIN a mapped drive letter, such as


X:\PI5, not directly from \\WIS-SERVER\PI5





Do this on the workstation (not WIS-SERVER) by selecting Map Network Drive


from the Tools menu in Explorer (or My Computer). Choose a drive letter,


select the shared drive (just sharing C: is easiest, though less secure) and


check the 'Reconnect at logon' checkbox. Now make sure your shortcut points


to the drive letter, not \\WIS-SERVER\PI5





Note: the PI5 folder must be contained WITHIN this shared drive or folder -


it will not work if PI is installed in the root. You may need to move the


PI installation on the server to C:\PI5\PI5, for example, and then share the


top-level PI5 folder.

What's the difference between a mapped drive and shortcut to the server?
as far as accessing the files there is no difference.





However, some programs require the mapped drive (in your example x:\P15). When the porgram was created the developers didn't give it the ability to use a UNC path (which is the \\WIS-SERVER). Therefore the software won't work that way.





Most newer programs dont' have a problem with \\WIS-Server, but older software will have issues with it.





Hope that helps.
Reply:The difference is that a mapped drive uses a mounted drive letter value, while the shortcut uses the UNC path... D:\ vs. \\





Depending on how they coded the application, it may not be able to deal with the UNC's.

British Columbia forests? Need help, its for a project!?

Okay. so i have this geography book, and in it it says that british columbia has 'tempered humid' forests (mainly). Then i rented another book from the library about books from B.-C. and this book has a world map with all types of forests everywhere, and it says in B.-C. there are three kinds (order from most to least): the medditeranian forest, the aborded savana, rain forest and taiga (boreal forest) im sorry if some arent real forests im translating from french to english lol cuz i have history in french. Its just i want to know if the forest tempered humid has another name for one of the ones in my library book? and if not... then why doesnt my library book have it writen is it because theires so little of the tempered humid forest?

Double integral help?

The region R is enclosed by the x axis and the three parabolas


x = (y^2/4) - 1


x = 1 - (y^2/4)


x = 4 - (y^2/16)





Note that R is the image of the rectangle a ≤ u ≤ b, 0 ≤ v ≤ c in the uv-plane under the map f = %26lt;x, y%26gt; = %26lt;u^2 - v^2, 2uv%26gt;.





Use f to do a coordinate change that will let you compute the following double integral.





∫∫ x dxdy


R

Double integral help?
Interesting. I would have done this by horizontal cross-sections:





Int {0 : y : 2, 1-y^2/4 : x : 4-y^2/16} x dx dy +


Int {2 : y : 4, y^2/4 - 1 : x : 4-y^2/16} x dx dy





The other approach you've suggested may provide a more elegant solution, but it's not familiar to me. So far, all I have is a=1, b=2, c=1. Here's my plan:


1) Take a small square (du by dv) in the uv-plane;


2) Run it through the transformation to find its xy-image;


3) Compute the area of that image, in terms of u and v;


4) Multiply by x=u^2-v^2;


5) Integrate.





Let's move up to step 3. The image of the small square is a nearly rectangular thing; we'd like to know how long its sides are.





Start with equations


x = u^2 - v^2, y = 2uv.


Take u and v partials:


x_u = 2u


y_u = 2v


These two give us the length of one side of the rectangle: Sqrt(4u^2 + 4v^2)





x_v = -2v


y_v = 2u


These two give us the length of the other side of the rectangle: Sqrt(4v^2 + 4u^2).





Happily, these are the same; thus, the area of the almost-rectangle is their product, 4u^2 + 4v^2. So,





dA = dx dy = 4(u^2+v^2) du dv.





We now multiply this by x = u^2-v^2 to get





∫∫ x dxdy = ∫∫ 4(u^2 + v^2)(u^2 - v^2) du dv


R





= 4 ∫∫ u^4 - v^4 du dv


= 4 ∫ [u^5 / 5 - uv^4]_1^2 dv


= 4 ∫ [6.2 - v^4] dv


= 4 [6.2 v - v^5 / 5]_0^1


= 4 [6.2 - .2]


= 24





Whew.





Edit: while checking this answer by way of my horizontal cross-section idea, I realized something.





Let region A be the one in question (in the first quadrant).


Let region B be the region bounded by x = 1- y^2/4 and x = y^2/4 - 1, for 2 %26lt; y %26lt; 4.


Let region C be the region bounded by y=0, y=4, x = 1 - y^2/4, x=4 - y^2/16.





Then (integral over A) + (integral over B) = (integral over C).


But region B is symmetric with respect to the y-axis, so (integral over B) = 0.





The integral over C has only one piece, which is nice. That integral works out to 24 as well, so at this point I'm pretty confident in my answer.

Homework help... on English..?
No, disdainfully is an adverb. --see the - ly


B. Jerry looks ill because ill describes Jerry.


A predicate adjective describes the subject but is in the predicate and has a linking verb.





A and B have prepositional phrases in the predicate:


at the map and into the microscope.

Which of the following sentences contains an italicized word that's used as a predicate adjective?

A. Jerry looks at the map.


B. Jerry looks ill today.


C. Jerry looks into the microscope.


D. Jerry looks disdainfully at the pile of laundry.

Which of the following sentences contains an italicized word that's used as a predicate adjective?
B. "Jerry looks ill" has a similar meaning to "Jerry is ill". Ill is the adjective, because it refers directly to Jetty. In the A and C sentences, "looks" is followed by a prepositional phrase. In sentence D, "looks" is followed by an adverb, then a prepositional phrase.

English question ?

which of the following sentences contains an italicized word that's used as a predicate adjective ?





a. jerry looks at the map


b. jerry looks ill today


c. jerry looks into the microscope


d. jerry looks disdainfully at the pile of laundry

English question ?
Yes "B" is the answer; some verbs like look, seem, feel, can be either action or linking.





All the rest use look as action. Looks at the map. Looks into microscope. Looks at laundry.





Choice "B" is the only one where no one is actually looking at anything. Jerry looks ill. He appears to be ill. In this case, looks is a linking verb that links the subject Jerry with a word in the predicate, ill.





Since ill is indeed an adjective, it is therefore describing Jerry and hence called a Predicate adjective.
Reply:None of them are italicized, but option B is the only sentence with a predicate adjective.
Reply:As the first reply indicated, nothing in those phrases is italicized (you might want to use *asterisks* to indicate the word in question).





That being said, the answer is almost definitely B -- assuming *ill* is the predicate adjective.
Reply:none are italicized sorry bud

Reply:Jerry looks (disdainfully) at the pile of laundry

Which of the following sentences contains a word that's used as a predicate adjective?

A. Jerry looks 'at' the map.


B. Jerry looks 'ill' today.


C. Jerry looks 'into' the microscope.


D. jerry looks 'disdainfully' at the pile of laundry.

Which of the following sentences contains a word that's used as a predicate adjective?
First get rid of the prepositional phrases so the sentences will read:


A. Jerry looks


B. Jerry looks ill


C. Jerry looks


D. Jerry looks disdainfully





Neither A nor C has anything but the verb in the predicate, so they're out.





Disdainfully is an adverb, not an adjective, so it's out.





That leaves B. Jerry looks ill.
Reply:There are two parts of a sentence, the subject part and the predicate part The simple subject is in the subject part, and the verb is in the predicate part.





In English, MOST adjectives come before the noun they modify (describe). RED house; BIG barn; BRILLIANT student.





Now a PREDICATE ADJECTIVE is simply an adjective that follows a linking verb (NEVER AN ACTION VERB) and modifies (describes) the subject.





Example: The book is very SMALL. The adjective "SMALL" follows the linking verb "is" and describes the subject.





Example: The best novel I ever read was enormous in length.


The adjective "enormous" follows the linking verb "was" and describes the subject novel.





CAUTION: The PA ALWAYS modifies the SUBJECT. Note: the following:





Mary is an extraordinary scholar. In this sentence, "extraordinary" modifies Mary and is indeed an adjective. But it is NOT a predicative adjective because it does not modify the subject.





I hope this helps.

Which of the following sentences contains an italicized word that's used as a predicate adjective?
Doc8's answer is correct.





The correct answer is B, because a predicate adjective is a word used to predicate an attribute of the subject. For example, in the sentence "Roses are red," the word "red" is the predicate adjective, describing an attribute of the subject "roses."


Likewise, in the sentence "Jerry looks ill today," "ill" is the predicate adjective used to describe an attribute of "Jerry," the subject.


D cannot be correct, because disdainfully is an adverb, not an adjective. A and B are incorrect because the entire predicate of each sentence ("at the map" and "into the microscope") describe where Jerry looks, not an attribute of Jerry.
Reply:b. because looks is used as a verb in all the other sentences. in b, it is used as an adjective because you are saying that jerry "looks" ill today, and that is not used as a verb, because jerry is not doing anything. "looks" in that sentence, is kinda like a helping verb, except its not a verb, its helping the sentence tell that jerry is probably ill.

Help! Class presentation ideas?

On friday I've got this project due for a class called Contemporary World Problems (CWP). The basic thing is, you have to pick a world problem, pick a specific place, and do a big, grand, entertaining presentation on it.





So this was my plan: Kenya, starvation, make a story book, read it to the class, interact w/ questions and hand out candy or w/e.





That just isn't going to work out because I don't have the time to make a book by now, nad I get frustrated because I am HORRIBLE at drawing.





SO. what are some alternatives? I want to keep Kenya %26amp; starvation since I already did my map... and use teaching possibly... b/c just posterboard presentations are not entertaining enough...





It has to be something where I am roleplaying though. PLEASE HELP!

Reply:Why not dress the part? I know some Kenyans and they wear nice clothes but then bare feet. You could bring in a garden hoe and pretend you're telling your story while working in the garden. You can describe how hard it is to try to grow anything in the rocky, dry, sandy soil.

Windows Network mapping?

http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/1741/...


. How do I shut this down or take my computer out of this network? Also I read mapping network drives the option I get when right clicking one of these "networks " I can use to "map shared drives and shared folders. When you access a shared drive or folder you can also access subfolders if you have the appropriate permissions However, you cannot map a drive for a subfolder that is not explicitly configured as a shared resource." Too bad mapping network drives option is disabled on each one. I think I didn't configure my C drive and D drive by now to not share any files. No folder's properties have their share this folded box ticked on them but for some reason I don't have the appropriate permission to access any of these networks to view them but I think its working the other way around the other side of that network can browse me. How can I disable these workgroups or enable myself permission to view whats inside of them-thanks

Windows Network mapping?
I suppose you're asking how to get out of the Toros group of computers. This could be a domain or a workgroup. The icon is not specific to what grouping it's in. Either way, changing it is the same:


1) Log on as an admin


2) Navigate to Start/Settings/Control Panel and click Network Connections


3) Select Advanced/Network Identification from the menu


4) To take it out of Toros, you need to set the workgroup to something else. You'll be prompted for an administrator password (for a domain admin) if you are taking it out of the domain...





If you don't want to see network neighborhood, simply disable and stop the service "Computer Browser." There are much better ways to secure the computer, such as deinstalling NetBIOS, but that wasn't the question. Anyway, when you disable "Computer Browser" in services.msc, you will no longer see those other groups.





To verify if you have any network shares on your local computer, go to Start/Run and type Cmd. Then type net share. It will list your shares. Most likely, you are sharing your admin shares at the minimum. That's a security no-no if you don't want to get hacked... It's easy to disable that by editing the registry under HKLM/SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\L...


and setting AutoShareWks and AutoShareServer to 0.





You cannot get permission to view workgroups unless you own the computers where they reside. That's up to their administrator to allow you to access them. Now, having said that, they are easy to hack. I won't teach you that and will caveat that by saying that "if it's not yours, don't touch it." Just disable and stop the "Computer Browser" service and you won't have to see them any more.

I am 21 (in Mayland) and I always do stuff that other people think is immature/stupid. Any guys around my age?

like I am in college, and if I see a squirrel or a cat somewhere walking on campus I actually follow it until it is out of sight, or like if I see a hose attached to a sprinkler I just follow the hose to see where it leads, e.t.c. Also, like when it had that map thing on Dora The Explorer that says "I'm the map, I'm the map" a couple of times and then stops, like I just wondered what if it kept saying it and did not stop. Lol. I don't know why I am like that, but I would love to find a guy who is like me because I think we would have so much in common. I know I have a mild form of autism which makes me have trouble communicating with people, and I look young for my age. But could this have anything to do with how I am act? I mean I jst think it is funny. Should I even be trying to find a guy who is like me? I guess I just want someone I can trust, because I have had so many bad experiences, and guys just seem to be about physical things. But I am really not like that...

As for whether or not you're immature, I'd say not. You're curious, creative, and unhindered by behavioral "norms". I'd say that's actually a plus. Good luck finding someone who is the same way. It takes a special kind of person to ignore the fact that what they're doing might look silly to people of stricter social circles.

Which of the following sentences contains an italicized word that's used as a predicate adjective?

A. Jerry looks at the map.


B. Jerry looks ill today.


C. Jerry looks into the microscope.


D. Jerry looks disdainfully at the pile of laundry.





the italicized words are


a] at


b] ill


c] into


d] disdainfully

Which of the following sentences contains an italicized word that's used as a predicate adjective?
The correct answer is one that describes Jerry because a predicate adjective describes the subject.


A tells where he looked; it's not the not choice.


C also tells where he looked.


D tells how and where he looked.





B describes how Jerry appears. ****





The problem is the verb "looks" because sometimes it is followed by a predicate adjective while at other times it may be followed by a prepositional phrase acting as an adverb (answering questions like when, where, how, why, etc.).
Reply:a] at is a preposition, not an adjective


b] ill ill is a noun OR an adjective so it is a possibility


c] into is a preposition, not an adjective


d] disdainfully is an ADVERB (describes the verb)





The only possible answer is B.


And when you look at the sentence: Jerry looks ill today.


You can see that the adjective ILL describes the SUBJECT, Jerry, so it IS a predicate adjective.
Reply:C is the answer where on the same test

Maths Question - Ratio!?

Here's the question:





The farmer's slurry tank is 50 metres from a stream. The farmer draws the tank on a map to show this distance. The scale of the map is 1:1250.





What is the distance between the tank and the stream on the map?





a) 2.5cm


b) 4cm


c) 25cm


d) 40cm





I need to know how you worked it out. This is the most important bit. Please don't just give me the answer!!!





Thanks alot

Maths Question - Ratio!?
In real life, it's 50 meters.





The scale of the map is 1:1250





That means 1 meter on the map is 1250 meters in real life.





So...


(map distance)/(real life) = (map distance)/(real life)





1 / 1250 = x / 50


multiply both sides by 50...


0.04 meters = x





you need to change that to something more reasonable, like centimeters...





1 meter = 100 centimeters





So


(0.04 meters) = 100(0.04) centimeters = 4 cm
Reply:Actual distance = 50 m = 5000 cm


map distance = (1 / 1250) x 5000 cm


map distance = 500 / 125 cm


map distance = 4 cm


Option b)
Reply:RATIO - 1:1250 = 1/1250





therefore


50m * 1/1250m = 0.40m = 40cm





d) 40cm
Reply:d = 50/1250 = 0.04m = 4cm
Reply:Part of me really hates doing your homework for you. How're you ever going to learn if we give you the answers?





Take 50 meters and divide by the scale, 1,250, to yield 0.04 meters, or 4 centimeters.
Reply:4 cm





50/1250=0.04
Reply:If the distance was 1250 m the distance between the tank and the stream will be 1m. Now express the 50m as a fraction of 1250 and that is 50/1250 = 1/25 m Multiply by 100 to change it into cm we have 100/25 = 4 cm. The answer is b.
Reply:1 meter = 100 cm





translation tip:


1:1250 = 1/1250


"the scale is 1:1250" means


= "the scale is 1/1250"


or map distance/ real distance = 1/1250





so map distance = (real distance)/ 1250


= 50 /1250 = .04 meter


= .04 * (1 meter)


= .04 * (100 cm)


= 4 cm
Reply:The scale of the map is 1:1250





let x = real life map


1 / 1250 = x / 50


1250 x = 50


x = 4/100


:%26gt; x = 0.04 m








1 meter = 100 centimeters





So


0.04 m = 100(0.04) cms


= 4 cm








Ans B
Reply:In this situation...





1 metre in real life is equal to 1 / 1250m on the map......





So....


50 metres in real life equates to 50 / 1250m on the map.





50 / 1250 = 0.04m which is equal to 4cm


So answer is C.

One major weakness of the Confederation was that it could not deal with?????
D.





Since the central government didn't have any real control, it couldn't even make real money, let alone deal with paying for everyone.
Reply:d. the nation's finances - in this period there was plenty of forgery and counterfeit currency in the colonies because there was no set of procedures to stop these acts.
Reply:D. The Articles did not outline a way for the federal government to collect taxes. It was more of a "donate anything extra you might have," which of course did not work.





A reason for this, perhaps, is even with the Articles of Confederation, the "United States" was still just a collection of individual states--not unified. So the states, to a degree, were not obligated to finance other states through a federal system. Adding to this, the Articles gave Congress very little power to enforce anything in the A of C, and collecting money was one of them.

Parallelogram, Point P divides AB in the ratio 2:1, lines AC and DP meet at Q and lines BQ and AD meet at R.?

Determine the images of P,Q and R under the Affine transformation t which maps A, D and C to (0,1), (0,0) and (1,0) respectively.

Parallelogram, Point P divides AB in the ratio 2:1, lines AC and DP meet at Q and lines BQ and AD meet at R.?
get some graph paper





mark the points A, C, and D using a large scale...


aka use 5 blocks = 1





then finish the parallelogram by marking B in the only logical place: (1,1) %26lt;-- this will be obvious when you see A, C, and D





now, what you just plotted are the images of ACD after the flip, so what you're going to find for P Q and R will also be the images... so what we find here will be your answers








next plot point P. i plotted it at (2/3 , 1) since i read it is as from A to P = twice from P to B.


everything from here forward is contingent upon this.








next, draw AC and DP and then find their equations


AC should be pretty simple: y-intercept of 1, slope of -1


y = -x+1 or y = 1-x





DP, find your slope, which will be 3/2 and since it crosses at the origin, your equation is y = 3/2 x





now, the point of intersection, point Q is the point at which the equations AC and DP are equal, so set them equal to each other and solve for x


1-x = 3/2 x


1 = 3/2 x + x


1 = 5/2 x


x = 2/5


plug that in for x in either equation and find y


y = 1-x = 1- 2/5 = 3/5





point Q: (2/5 , 3/5)











next, find the equations of the lines BQ and AD


you'll find them to be: BQ: y=(2/3)x + (1/3)





and AD is the y-axis, or x = 0


they intersect at point R


2 ways to do this: solve BQ for x then set equal to AD


or, since AD: x=0, gives you the value of x at the intersection, substitute that in for x in BQ and solve for y.





y = (2/3)(0) + (1/3)


y = 1/3





point R = (0 , 1/3)








P: (2/3,1)


Q: (2/5,3/5)


R: (0,1/3)

note: i assume you know how to find the equation of a line given its graph... so i left that for you to do... :)
Reply:R divides AD in the ratio 2:1

d. the nation's finances.

One major weakness of the Confederation was that it could not deal with ????
The answer is D





While the Articles of Confederation was a plan of government based upon the principles fought for in the American Revolutionary War, it contained crucial flaws. It had no power of national taxation, no power to control trade, and Therefore, it could not enforce legislation. It had no direct origin in the people themselves; it knew only state sovereignty. Each state, therefore, had the power to collect its own taxes, issue currency, and provide for its own militia. The government could not govern efficiently because of a general lack of power to compel states to honor national obligations. The government’s main activity was to control foreign policy and conclude treaties. Economic credibility was a major problem because the government owed $42 million (more than $33 billion today) after the Revolutionary War, and the debt was mainly owed to American patriots. This financial obligation was not paid off until the early part of the 1800’s.
Reply:D-the federal government had no authority to tax the states.

Science 1 question. Punnett Squares.?

1.What do the letters in each box of a Punnett square tell you?


A. the possible combinations of alleles in offspring based on the parents' genetic makeup


B. that both parents show characteristics of the dominant trait


C. how to assemble a genetic map of the chromosome on which the alleles are located


D. the full pedigree of the geraniums





Thanks!!

Science 1 question. Punnett Squares.?
The answer is A.





B is incorrect, because punnet squares are used when the parents are homozygous for dominant or recessive traits, and when the parents are heterozygous.





C is incorrect because you can only assemble a genetic map of a chromosome when you are using linked genes - genes that are on the same chromosome.





D is incorrect because punnet squares are not pedigrees. Pedigrees give you the ancestral medical history of an organism (or human family) as far back as records show. Punnet squares only give you information on the probability, given the parent's genotypes, of the offspring having a particular genotype.
Reply:I believe it is A
Reply:Answer is A
Reply:option a is correct,as we are talking of only letters,its permutations and combination that which allele set goes in offspring and its probability
Reply:Definitely A.
Reply:I think it's "A", but I hated that segment of Biology.

Thanks in advance whoever you are

Can anyone help me with my company study?
One suggestion if possible, do you have a television station near were you live, even if is a news station. You could stop by there or call them ask if you schedule a time to come in an speak with some one, of course tell them why you are asking and more than likely they would be more than willing to give you first hand information you need. Then you could use your information to fill in the blanks to your questions.

I cant figure it out, G.M. experts HELP!!!!!!?

I own a 1991 Caprice with a 5.0 engine the car has been immaculately cared for and has only 65000 miles on it. I have a problem with a ignition cutoff (RANDOM AND UNDER LOAD ONLY) the car starts good even in extremely cold weather and runs smooth that is until it reaches closed loop operation. when the car reaches full opp. temp and I put the car under load IE starting off from a stop/accelerating up hill the entire ignition cuts in and out . so far to fix the problem I have replaced the fuel pump,all filters,ignition module (4 times) the coil,the cap %26amp; rotor,all spark plug wires %26amp; plugs,the whole distributer,and the main P.C.M., the T.P.S.,MAP sensor , the ignition switch and all wiring harnesses from the collom to the ignition. no trouble codes show up on scan,all grounds are good, and yet the trouble persists! The car doesnt miss a beat when its cold it runs like a race horse but when its warmed up it runs like a FORD. Someone out there HELP!!!!!!

I cant figure it out, G.M. experts HELP!!!!!!?
You could put a few grand into it but that wont make it as good as a Ford. That's what you get for buying a G.M...Get a FORD.
Reply:Bitburger and Jeff S had the best answers. After the slam on the Fords, I hardly feel qualified to answer. You might have some do a diagnostic on your distributor. Sometimes they break down. It is a simple test but might be better to leave to a mechanic.
Reply:sdound like your cataletic converter is clogging up when enging gets up to temp
Reply:Sure sounds like the ignition is intermittently dropping out which means one of the sensors, ignition components or computer is bad so that the computer doesn't produce the correct ignition triggers and controls as it should. Is there a crank sensor? If so, maybe its signal to the computer is dropping out. Maybe a good scanner could monitor the ignition conditions as you drive the car. Make sure the battery is good and that the DC voltage to or from the ignition system isn't intermittent. For example, what if your ignition switch was intermittent? You could wire an older analog volt ohm meter to the 12 Volt ignition feed voltage point and have a friend watch to see if the needle pointer on the voltmeter is holding steady as you drive the car. Also, if you had a tachometer on the car, you'd see it's pointer dropping down as the problem occurred. That's because the tachometer is hooked directly to the ignition system output pulses. Don't forget that "new" components are not necessarily "good" components!
Reply:I'm sure there will be tons of WAGS on this, but mine is maybe the EGR valve is sticking open when it gets warm. It might only have 65k miles, but it is 16 years old.
Reply:Bitburger probably hit it. Now, you say your ignition cuts out....why then have you replaced the fuel pump? Do you know whether this is an ignition problem or a fuel problem? My advice to you is to get a can of starting fluid and try to feed the engine after it warms up. If it runs well, then you have a fuel problem. If it still runs poorly, then you have an ignition problem. I would say that it has something to do with your fuel:air mixture. This is a 1991 with a 305. The vaccum lines are probably dry-rotted as well as the intake being gummed up. Usually the EGR port. It's probably got so much carbon in the EGR valve that it has stuck open. Isolate your problem before you start replacing parts. It's a waist of money. Just like all of that money you probably paid for your ASE certification. Listen to what the old mechanics teach and it will be more valuable than any certification. Good luck.
Reply:After changing all the filters and ignition parts... I would assume that is would be ECM (computer) or the wire to the ECM. If it runs great an a cold day, I would guess the heat is just expanding thing enough so the wires are not making proper contact near the ECM. Also if it is under load, then the frame is might be moving just enough to cause this as well. Hope you find the problem, best of luck in the new year.

Applying for Schengen visa in Sothern California???!!!?

I'm applying for a tourist visa to go to Norway. They say you have to apply in person at one of the Consulates Generals or Embassy in Washington D.C. (http://www.norway.org/misc/map.aspx)


My question is, I live in Southern California, is it possible if I apply the visa in L.A. or somewhere closer to where I live?(I live in Riverside, CA)





Additional question: Do I have to have my flight tickets booked before I apply for visa?

Applying for Schengen visa in Sothern California???!!!?
According to this:





http://www.udi.no/templates/Tema.aspx?id...





You don't need a Visa to enter Norway for up to 90 days as a US citizen. (You might call to double check...)





Generally you don't need to show any kind of visa to buy tickets.
Reply:Almost every country in the Schengen Zone has a consulate in or around L.A. There is a Norwegian consulate in Beverly Hills.





If you are a US citizen, you may be able to go to Norway visa-free for up to 90 days.

2. Eastern Hemisphere/Southern Hemisphere


3. Globe
Reply:Q1. What do geoligests call an area where there is mostly one kind of topography?


A1. The area is homogeneous. That is, all parts look similar to all other parts. Implication: It is an area of uniform geology, uniform process, and uniform age.





Q2. The south island of New Zealand lies at about 170 degrees east .What hemisphere is it in?


A2. All of New Zealand is in the Southern Hemisphere. The South Island is actually one of the southernmost islands in the whole world, not counting Antarctica of course!

Astronomy Questions pertaining to Galaxies.?

What use are 21 cm radio waves to galactic astronomers?





A) They cut through the dusty cocoons to let us watch star birth.


B) We can reflect them off the core of the Galaxy.


C) Their Doppler shifts let us map the motions and locations of spiral arms.


D) They bounce off stars like our Sun to let us precisely measure their distances.


E) They pick up the cool, dark matter much better than can optical telescopes.





and





16. The visible color of the direction to the Galactic Center is





A) blue from the OB associations in the Sagittarius arm.


B) yellow from the old Population II stars in the Galactic Bulge.


C) red from the emission nebulae.


D) black from the dust clouds.


E) brown from the dwarfs in the dark matter.

Astronomy Questions pertaining to Galaxies.?
Lets see, for the first question:


A - might be true


B - would require us to send 21 cm waves from earth to the core of the galaxy to be reflected - that is many many thousands of light years, so this can't be right.


C - Doppler shift is not affected by wavelength - all wave lengths are doppler shifted the same amount, so this can't be right.


D - bouncing 21 cm waves off of any star BUT the sun would take years because they are so far away, so this can't be right.


E - the reason that cool, dark matter is "dark" is that it doesn't emit ANY radiation - and that includes 21 cm waves, so this can't be right.





Only A is left. And it is correct. 21 cm waves emitted by stars penetrate dust clouds well so we can peek inside the dust cocoons.








For the next question, I have to admit that I just don't know, though I suspect it is D.
Reply:First problem: B and D are clearly wrong. The 21 cm radiation is from hydrogen, and penetrates dust clouds better than optical radiation. It should be possible to measure Doppler shift, although I haven't heard of any work along those lines.





Second problem: D.

IP mapping in OS X?

I know that in windows, the HOSTS file located in c:/WINDOWS/system32/DRIVERS/etc/hosts is used to map ip address to host names. Is there a similar file in mac OS X? if so, where is it located?

IP mapping in OS X?
The file is /etc/hosts
Reply:Yes, there's a similar file. It's located under /etc/hosts, although it isn't used in OS X.





The info is actually held in a database accessible from the "NetInfo Manager" program, which is found in the utilities folder of you applications folder. Once in there, the host aliases are in the category labeled "machines"





Be careful though, you can really easily screw up your system and leave it in an unusable state if you don't know what you're doing.
