Ding dong ... the lightbulb turned on .. thank you ... got it figured out!

Thanks, tried that... it is as baffled as I am and only comes up with the same word I type in .... thank you for your attempt, it is appreciated.

I don't know if this is imperative but at the top of the problem it says one + one = two .... not sure if that is a hint or just a title so to speak for the problem...

What is the definition of Rising Action?

Yes, i understand that but can't figure out with what or how many different ways ..

Well it dosen't look like I can copy and paste my essay... How do I paste my essay in here? I copied it into note pad to then tried to paste it here but it won't take it. I tried posting it twice

During the summer of 2008 I read several different books. The two books that I enjoyed most were SUB 4:00 by Chris Lear and Salt A World History by Mark Kurlansky. I have been asked to “…discuss which author was more successful in creating a good piece of literature. Use examples from both books to explain your thinking.” What makes a successful piece of literature? This is the question that must first be answered before even attempting to write this essay. Weather or not something is “successful” or not is an opinion and not a fact so I have to come up with my own definition which must be done before proceeding. Coming up with my own definition of “successful” that pertains to book quality is a rather taunting task. There are several different factors that will change a readers mind on the quality of the book. These things can range from character development, setting, plot, and so forth. As a reader I have expectations for all of these elements that make up a good book. If these expectations that I have as a reader are fulfilled I could call the book “successful”. Can these expectations change depending on several different other expectations? I have expectations before I start reading as a reader. These expectations can change over time. So therefore I must consider the time and place that I read the book. Obliviously if I’m reading in the car for a few straight hours as I’m traveling on vacation I’ll have to ignore the radio. This would mean my expectations would go up for a book because the book would have to be even more interesting to help me ignore the radio as suppose to reading in a room that’s absolutely silent were I might be able tolerate negative elements of a book and not even know it because there’s nothing that could be distracting to a reader. Of course a reader has different expectations for different books. Let’s say I was reading a textbook. My expectations that I would have would be different than if I was reading a novel. Sense I chose two very different books it’s only normal that I would have different expectations while reading them. I would imagine if I were to just start analyzing these books you as a reader would have no idea what I am talking about because you’ve probably have never read them before so it’s necessary for me to include some background information on these books. Sub 4:00 by Chris Lear is about Alan Webb who is a track athlete. This book focuses on his high school and college track career. He broke a record thought to last forever. For thirty four long years, not one American Schoolboy had run a sub-4:00 mile. Then Alan Webb comes along and becomes the first athlete to run a sub-4:00 mile in indoor track during their high school career in the US. A few months later who breaks Jim Ryun’s 36-year-old high school record running the impossible. He ran a 3:53.46 mile, which captured Webb to instant fame, earning him the title of “America’s Next Great Miler.” As you can see you would have had no idea what I was talking about if you have no background information at all in track and field. In order for me to call this book “successful” it’ll have to meet my expectations. My expectations for reading Sub 4:00 by Chris Lear is rather different then Salt by Mark Kurlansky sense it’s not a novel. My expectations for this book is that it gives a detailed overview of both his high school and college track careers, easy enough to read, doesn’t bore me to death, entertains me enough to read the whole thing, discusses those feelings you get before and during the race, discusses some of the workouts he would do, and discusses how hard of a sport track and field really is. These expectations that I have are far different then Salt by Mark Kurlansky. I can admit that I have very limited knowledge on the use of salt and it’s importance. My knowledge of history is vast but that the importance of salt in particular I haven’t studied before. So I don’t have many expectations for the book Salt by Mark Kurlansky. I expect to come away from reading this book with a great amount of new knowledge that I didn’t have before, it’s easy to read, it’s interesting enough to finish the book and that’s basically it.

Sorry but it won't let me post more than one paragraph for some reason so read the post a couple up if there's a way to make it more than one paragaph let me now how ok...

This is a rough draft of the introduction to my essay that I have to write for summer reading. I've had a string of terrible English TEachers so I'll know that I'll need a lot of help here.

Here's what I've been given to work with... In a five-paragraph essay, discuss which author was more successful in creating a good piece of literature. Use examples from both books to explain your thinking. The student demonstrates an understanding of both books the student demonstrates judgments about the literary quality of each book the student supports these judgments with examples from both books the student prepares an insightful analysis of the literary elements in the books -----------------END------------------ This is only the introduction to my essay so lots of it is missing but I think it's a good start.

I reposted it by the way becasue it was just terrible before when it was all one paragraph becasue I couldn't post multiple paragraphs I had to make it all one and even now it wouldn't let me so I had to post sevearl paragaphs in there on post. At least now it'll be more easier to read.

thanks I did and am curently writing my essay and will post it up later

Well I got to got to cross country practice so I'll check those websites on long quotes later and might finish it later if I can get on the computer later thanks for your help

98/73 Don't know how to explain it though it's just the oposite of X negative to positive, positive to negative. Hope that made some sense.

I'm talking about Salt A Wrorld History I read like the whole thing. I skipped a few pages here and there. like I said thought it was good it did it's purpose to inform me on salt and it's purpose. The only thing I didn't like was how he brought up reciepes left and right on how to make fermented stuff. I didn't like the book I just thought it did it's purpose. I really don't know what to do.

It's suppose to be 5. the second third and forth are all one but sense I'm not really sure how to make paragraphs here I couldn't show that. Paragraph three is really a quote from the book.

great thanks a lot I'm going to take a couple of minutes to read everything you've posted then start fixing it up. Then I'm most likely am going to go running myself and won't post the updated version tell later late tonight or sometime in the evening if not tommorow. I'll just create a new topic I guess. Thanks for the help again.

Kurlansky supports this thesis by discussing the importance of fish and many other foods that can be preserved longer when salted. Having the ability to store food for a longer period of time allows for civilizations to grow and develop. Kurlansky discusses how wars were started over the control of salt. Salt was even taxed in many places to make revenue for the economy. As technology sophisticated salt became less than a product to die for because we learned that salt can easily be made and found in abundance in many places. We also have the technology to preserve food longer without the need of salt. It’s a product that people can’t live without, a product essential for life. To better understand how valuable salt was Kurlansky compares it to gasoline, a product today that’s just as valuable as salt was. Kurlansky explores the idea of how valuable salt was by discussing many ancient civilizations and what they used salt for. You’ll read about how the Celts mine salt and how salted cod became a huge marketed product. You’ll learn about how the Egyptians used salt to mummify bodies.

Salt is a book about salt hence the title of the book. It’s important to realize how valuable salt is but Kurlansky rambles on and on about it. He drags it out as much as possible and goes for well over four hundred pages. There are some pictures from different sources that are included in the book along with many recipes that he cites. To be exact there are a total of forty different recipes that well tell you how to make some food that will include the use of salt in some way or another. You have no real use reading about how to make sauerkraut from a recipe that dates back to the 1800s and you’ll get really while reading the book because you’re bombarded with ancient recipes that really serve no real purpose left and right. You’ll feel like your reading an encyclopedia on the subject rather then a book about history. Kurlansky mentions fish even more times than you’ll be greeted by a wall of text telling you how to make some food that you’ll just skip over. The book as a result get’s really boring and dull after about two hundred pages in or so as you’ll read about fish every other page. The book does talk about many ancient civilizations like the Celts or the Vikings and how they used salt and goes on to discuss other areas and time periods and tries to connect them to salt. You can expect to learn some amazing facts and coming away with a wealth of knowledge from reading this book. Kurlansky will even talk about routes of words or phrases like how the word “salary” is derived from some word which literary meant “salt” and how some people even got paid in salt. That’s were the saying came from “earning his salt”. Many interesting facts like that one make the book somewhat enjoyable to read. Kurlansky jumps around from place to place and century to century following no particular order. If the book was a few hundred pages shorter like Cod the book would have been so much better as the book is dragged out so much. The book is rather difficult to read, get’s really boring, and I almost gave it up. The first one hundred pages or so are beautifully constructed but the rest is a pain to read. Kurlansky manage to get the track shoes on his feet and gets the book running but he forgets to put the spikes on and tie them. I found it really hard to finish but I enjoyed reading the first couple of chapters. Kurlansky talks about how many people claim to have a salt free diet when in reality the average American takes in a huge amount of salt every day and not even knowing it. When people think of salt they think of little white crystals that are sprinkled onto french-fries when in reality there are many different types of sodium out there that are in a lot of different foods. Many doctors tell us how bad salt is for the human body. When in reality it can’t live without it. A small amount of salt in your daily diet is healthy but taking in to much can be harmful. One thing is for sure though, you should keep this book out of your diet and don’t consume it. A small amount of this book is healthy for your consumption like the first two hundred pages or so but don’t take too much of it and try reading the whole thing or you’ll find yourself dead in the morning.

I was asking for feedback

ok thank you Can u look at the rest I got to go and will check back later and then rewrite it then repost

why is it sometimes necessary to judge what is a cause or an affect?

Thank you so much for your answer.

What happens when you combine lemon juice and ammonia?

Thanks. very much appreciated. I wrote it and gave it up.

draw a zig zab line on the y axis between the 0 and 40 and you can like so \ / \ / \ except smaller of course and tighter and between the two numbers

I apologize for doulbe post forgive me

how do i know the specific heat?

see... (- sin pi/12 + pi)/(sin (25 pi)/12 + pi) this becomes (sin pi/12 + pi)/(-sin (25 pi)/12 + pi) finish it off and you get negative one... why is sin(-20)/cos(380) equal to tan(-200) I don't understand

It would be more of a drop. But i still done get the formula. did i do the formula right in the first place?

Ok now that makes more sense to me. i must have typed it wrong. thank you.

Area of the triangle : Base x Height over 2

2x+5-7x=15 2x+5-7x-15=0 -5x-10=0 -5x=10 x=10/-5 x= -2

Its A

Present Perfect

change the equation 2x+5y=8 into the form of y=ax+b and then substitute for the value of X by ( 0 , 1 , 2 , 3 ) 3 points are enought and line them on a graph.. Note : the second equation has the same way!

seven thousands five hundred fourty two.. THATS IT!

Its is (2x+5)^2... That's the correct Factorized answer

ya drwls is right haha

the answer is c :)

But I just can't figure it out :-/ I'm a pretty big beginner at this... I tried looking up tutorials (thank you very much for that by the way) and couldn't find what I was looking for...

X would be 17.5, as long as the answer isn't required to be a whole number.

What i think is Samuel because he gets 6 DVDs and he's only paying a little bit more

For a given sample of CH3OH, the enthalpy change during the reaction is 82.6 kJ. How many grams of methane gas are produced?

yes all of these parts are derived from the same problem How many kilojoules of heat are released when 38.4 g of CH4 (g) reacts completely with O2 (g) to form CH3OH (g) at constant pressure?

i believe that you set it up like cos(x)= a/h a= 11 feet h= 40 feet then you take the inverse cos of 11/40

I'm currently on the same question after spending over 2 hours on it... What did you get?

No it just occurred to me as something intriguing. I don't see how anyone can argue that it's ok for waiters and waitresses to not wear hats/hairnets or gloves but apparently it's ok because restaurants pass health inspections. I have eaten at many restaurants and have never seen a waiter wear hairnet/hat or gloves. I guess it saves money but don't understand how it's safe at all.

is the answer D?

same here... yall should rethink your answer

4.21

Well if I had not read online that Emily Dickinson wrote a lot of poems about death, then I probably wouldn't have a clue to what it implies. However, I'll say it implies that "the storm" or the bad parts of her life is "o'er" or over or finished.

The question is asking about problems in her life, so yes 'where the storm is over' could mean where the problems end when she dies, but i could also show that the other answers could say something about challenges in her life. "On this wondrous sea" could be the answer because when you are on the sea you bob up and down, which could be the ups and downs or challenges in her life. "sailing silently" could mean that she is depressed as she is going through life, which one would conclude she is having challenges in her life. "sailing" as in going through life..."silently" as in depressed, since depressed people are usually quieter then normal.

x + y = 1,100 a + b = 49 (x+5%) + (y+2%) = 1,149 That's all I could take from the question. Now how you solve and get the answer is beyond me.

Hmm, that's interesting how no teacher of mine ever thought to tell me that. So now my problem is how do I consider it as a 'whole'? and should i be looking at the words literally or figuratively?

Ahh makes much more sense when Reiny did it. I remember learning this in algebra. I have a tendency to give everything its own variable, which makes the problem impossible to solve i guess.

Makes so much more sense now! Thank you! I looked up the definition of connotation, even though I thought I knew it, and that made it much easier to understand when I re-read it. You're right, storm is the big "problem" word!

Since the sound still needs to travel back up the well, it will actually take longer than 5.11 seconds. v=d/t 343=128/t t=0.37 5.11+0.37=5.48 seconds.

Sarah is filling a glass sphere with decorative sand. The radius of the sphere is 2 inches. Which is closest to the minimum amount of sand Sarah needs to completely fill the glass sphere?

no. of componenents = 2 (Na2SO4 and water - as each phase can be described by these two components only) no. of phases = 3 ( solid and liquid and vapor) degrees of freedom = 2-3+2 = 1

yeah what are the answers to 3 and 5 then

number 4 is b
