Answer to:
How can we make healthy popcorn? I have a friend that pops her popcorn in just a little bit of coconut oil. It tastes delightful! Also, since it gives the popcorn the light flavor of coconut, you don't need to add butter to make it taste good. You can also get popcorn seasoning. Pop your popcorn in a standard healthy oil, and add popcorn seasoning when you're done. Much better for you than salt and/or butter.

What do the x-intercepts of a quadratic mean? A quadratic is a function whose graph looks kind of like a U (it's called a parabola). The x-intercepts are the places where this graph crosses the x-axis. You find them by setting the function equal to zero. In other words, if you have f(x)=ax^2+bx+c (with a, b, and c being numbers) you solve ax^2+bx+c=0 for x.

Do you go there anyway and hope to change some things? Absolutely not. Money is meaningless compared to relationships. I would rather have a loving family and scrape by with barely enough to live than have all the money in the world and be alone.

If you could show us a roadmap to your heart would it show simple, straight roads, all leading there? Or would it involve many twists and turns and curves and hills and valleys and roads that turn back upon themselves? It's definitely pretty complicated. Even once you get there, it's pretty confusing to navigate inside. I can't even figure it out most of the time.

I just had a few standard things for Mr. PotatoHead, so there's not much to tell there. For viewfinder, I had a bunch of animal reels, Disney reels, and I had at least one reel from just about every place we ever went on vacation. Since we normally went to national parks, I had lots of pictures of nature scenes. I would sit with my ViewMaster for hours...

Are there girls out there that really have been planning their wedding since they were 10 years old? Most certainly! Ten-year-olds don't tend to do this often, but as soon as one of them knows someone that's getting/just got married, the whole group starts planning their own weddings. However, you do make me wonder how many women actually remember any of the plans they made as children. I'm not sure if any of those plans ever stick.

Answer to:
When do you know that you no longer love someone, but are now just attached? Love is a commitment, not a feeling. You don't just love someone until the butterflies go away; that's when you start to figure out what love really is. In answer to your question, you no longer love someone when you stop actively choosing to love them. True love does not just happen, because it is much more profound than fleeting romantic feelings.

Do you think a boyfriend should give his girlfriend a promise ring if they plan to someday get engaged? I think promise rings are silly. Engagement is simply the promise to get married. So what is a promise ring? A promise that someday I will promise we will get married? What in the world is that supposed to mean? Either get engaged or don't - halfway is pointless.

How can you find the deceleration of an object? Acceleration is the change in velocity divided by the change in time. Deceleration is simply negative acceleration, so you use the same formula. Let: v1 = initial velocity v2 = final velocity t1 = starting time t2 = finishing time Then: a = (v2-v1)/(t2-t1) Of course, if the problem gives you the change of velocity or the change of time, you simply use that instead of subtracting...

If you really wanted to, you could also find something bad when life was going well, but that doesn't seem like a very good idea. At any rate, we need both.

Often a girl thinks that if you don't ask you don't care and really don't want to know. If she's clearly upset and not talking, she's likely waiting for you to show that you care enough to ask. Don't be stubborn about waiting for her to speak up. In her mind, if you don't ask, you don't care; if you don't care, why should she tell you?

IF a man spends $20K on a car he is only to keep for 5 years, why shouldn't he spend at least half that amount on the engagment ring for "the love of his life"? The car is functional. The more you spend on a car, the more you get out of it. The ring represents a commitment that in no way changes with the cost of the ring. An expensive ring is unnecessary adornment, not a measure of his love. Why should he spend a fortune on it? It makes no sense for him to dedicate his life to saving for a ring.

What would your life be like without a cellphone(if you can't remember what it was like ten years ago)? It would be very sad and lonely. All of my friends live in different states, and long distance bills are much higher than free nights and weekends. I would especially miss nightly calls to my boyfriend. Having cell phones makes the 2000 miles between us slightly more tolerable.

Why do so many questions on AB lack proper spelling, punctuation or syntax? They are often hard to read or understand. Is it because people are rushing too much to post their questions? I think there are two main reasons: 1. People really don't care about such things. I think this is especially true of younger people who are used to abbreviating everything in text and instant messages. 2. Sometimes people try to fit as much information as possible into a question, so they condense it by using a lot of abbreviations. I agree that it makes it much more difficult....

I got my period on sunday and its not the way it usually is... today is wednesday and its still on but its not as heavy as it usually is... is this implantation bleeding? Basically, implantation bleeding occurs before your period should, and it consists of spotting rather than truly bleeding. Implantation bleeding is far less than a light period. http://www.amazingpregnancy.com/pregnancy-articles/547.html http://www.justmommies.com/articles/implantation-bleeding.shtml

First, since you have two scores of 70%, you can simply add the overall mark of those together.

Is it wrong to end a sentence with a preposition? It's perfectly acceptable to end a sentence with a prepositional phrase. However, if you end with just a preposition, the preposition has no object. A preposition without an object is always incorrect. If you would like some examples of prepositional phrases and their uses, check out: http://www.towson.edu/ows/prepositions.htm

As far as I know, 27 December 1970 was a Sunday. Having said that, would you know of a website which can ascertain what day of the week a certain date (since 1 March 1900, if possible) was? http://www.hf.rim.or.jp/~kaji/cal/ The site actually has a lot more available than just the years on this page. If you click on a year, 1609 for instance, the link would be: http://www.hf.rim.or.jp/~kaji/cal/cal.cgi?1609 From there, you can change the year at the end of the link to anything between 1 AD and 3000 AD, and it will take you to that year.

Answer to:
In the equation y=mx b, is x the x-intercept? Assuming you meant y=mx+b, x can be anything. m is the slope, and b is the y value of the y-intercept, so m and b are constants. y and x are variables that change with each point on the line. Did you need to find the x-intercept? If so, just set y equal to 0, and solve for x: 0=mx+b. In order to do that, you obviously need to know m and b.

I have a parallelogram. 4w is in the bottom left corner, 2x is in the bottom right corner, and 60 is in the top right corner. I need to find the value of each variable in the parallelogram. HELP!! The opposite angles are equal. That means that the top right corner equals the bottom left corner. 4w=60 The two top angles add up to 180 degrees. The two bottom angles also add up to 180 degrees. Since you know that the bottom left is 60, you can solve for the bottom right. 2x=180-60

Why do scientists think that the universe goes on forever? What other possibilities do you think there are, and please explain your reasoning. The only other possibility is that the universe does not go on forever. The universe goes a limited distance, and then...POOF! no more universe. My reasoning for that is: there is nothing between forever and not forever. Either it is or it isn't. If you don't think that it does go on forever, then it doesn't. If it doesn't go on foever, it must be limited.

It was only two weeks between her diagnosis and his birth. Even if it was much earlier in pregnancy, I could not sacrifice my child's life for my own.

The law of cosines states: a^2=b^2+c^2-2bccosα a is the length of the side you want to find, b and c are the lengths of the legs of the triangle, and α is the measure of the angle opposite a (the angle between the legs).

They are not designed to be super hard tests, just to measure whether or not you have learned the material. That means that the beginning of the test should be easy, and it should get progressively harder. They will allow you to enter classes that are the level above...

Answer to:
What is the inverse of the equation y=sqrt(y-4)? The way you wrote this equation, it has no inverse. However, I think you may have meant to write: y=sqrt(x-4) or f(x)=sqrt(x-4) Inverse functions are basically backwards functions. Right now, if you put in any value for x that is greater than or equal to 4, you will get out one value for y. You want to write the function so that if you put in any value for y, you will get out one value...

Two dimensional figures are things like squares, rectangles, circles, and triangles, which have length and width. Three dimensional figures are things like cubes, spheres, cones, prisms, and pyramids, which have length, width, and height. Thus: first dimension = length second...

Answer to:
Given the numbers 101,0/9, the square root of 3, the square root of 4, which are integers? Why? Please, I need to understand the why so that when I have to do this on my own, it will be clear in my head. Thanks for your help. An integer is anything that can be written as what you would think of as a "normal" number. Integers are the numbers you would use when counting. They do not have decimals, and they are not fractions (though some fractions can be written as integers). 101 is a normal number, and therefore is an integer. 0/9 does not look like an integer, but what does it equal? 0 divided by...

Around how many pages is a 2000 word report essay? If it is typed, double spaced, Times New Roman 12 point font, and one inch margins, it should be 6-7 pages. Most likely a little bit more than six pages, but not the full seventh page. It depends on how you write, so the number of pages is really an estimate.

When putting a list of people's names in alphabetical order, is it correct to put them in order according to the first letter of their surname, or not? You always begin by putting them in order according to last names. If multiple people have the same last name, you then use their first name to alphabetize them (but you still keep them all together according to last name).

Answer to:
Write an equation in standard form that has the same y-intercept as 3x+4y=19 and the same x-intercept as -4x+6y=25 The first thing you need to do is find the x-intecept and y-intercept from those equations. To find the y-intercept, set x equal to zero, and solve for y. 3x+4y=19 3(0)+4y=19 4y=19 y=19/4 (divide both sides by 4) The y-intercept is (0,19/4) To find the x-intercept, set y equal to zero, and solve for x. -4x+6y=25 -4x+6(0)=25 -4x=25 x=-25/4 (divide both sides by -4) The...

What is the diameter of a circle with a circumference of 55? The circumference of any circle is the diameter multiplied by pi. You are most likely using pi rounded to 3.14, so the equation looks like: C=(d)(pi) If you substitute the numbers in your equation for pi and C, you get: 55=3.14d Now, you just solve for d. 55=3.14d 55/3.14=d (divide both sides by 3.14) Any time you have the circumference of a circle and you want the diameter, just...

How do u solve 3x to the 4th - 15x cubed? First, write out your equation. 3x^4-15x^3=0 Then, look for things to factor. Each term contains 3 and x^3, so they can be factored out. (3x^3)(x-5)=0 Set each factor equal to zero. 3x^3=0 and x-5=0 Now solve each of those equations for x. Lastly, always remember to check your solutions in the original equation.

Answer to:
By connecting every other vertex of a regular pentagon, you form a symmetrical star. How and why is the sum of the star's angles congruent to that of any other non-regular pentagon's star? Just a guess: The sum of the measures of the interior angles of any pentagon is always 540 degrees. It doens't matter whether that pentagon is regular or not, it will always add up to 540 degrees, just like the sum of the measures of the interior angles of every triangle is always 180 degrees. Since the interior angles of pentagons always sum to 540 degrees, it makes sense that the...

Can anybody help with solving the system by addition for x+y=9 x-y=3 I really appreciate it! The idea here is to add the equations together. Any time you add the same thing to both sides of an equation, it stays equal. Because we know that x-y=3, we can add either side of that to the other equation, and still have a true statement. x+y=9 +x-y=3 ______ 2x+0y=12, which is the same as 2x=12 Now you can take your new equation and solve for x. 2x=12 x=6 (divide both...

I'm choosing to start with your second equation, and to isolate x. x+y=-9 x=-9-y (subtract y from both sides) You can now return to your second equation.
