Life as a Prince in Ancient China: (Written by unidentified)
This doc is not written by me, but by a fellow friend. Enjoy! Hey very well, you are a prince of some who knows wtf this dynasty is. Wait, all we know you are a prince of China. No, China was not China when it had many dynasties. Many of which you don't even know, even if you do, you can’t remember them all. So, being a prince of one dynasty is great right? No, no, no, no, you are wrong if you think that way. Being a prince is pretty cruel because you probably will be dead before you are even born. Introduction to Status Oh, guess what, you're not the only prince here, but one of hundreds or thousands of princes and princesses. The least amounts of sons and daughters that the emperor has are 2 digits like 14 or whatever like 98. So that many daughters and sons need a lot of wives. Most of them are known as concubines or in Chinese 妾(qiè) or 妃(fēi) if imperial, which I am talking about, so use 妃(fēi). All the concubines live in the back of the palace called 後宮(hòugōng). ...
Input and Output Values: How to find Inputs and Outputs on a Graph
(Ignore the answer put into the box, this was when I first was inputs and outputs, and I was totally wrong :D ) At first glance, you may think this seems very complicated, right? Actually, this is a very easy thing to understand. Today, I will be showing you how to indicate inputs and outputs on a graph! :D At you can see this equation is quite long. To make things more simple, let's remove some properties. Our new equation: f(-8) x g(4)=? To first solve this, we must know what a input and output is. A input is something that is put in. For example, when ordering groceries, your input would be your money. A output is a result of a input. Since your input is the money, your output would be your groceries. It is almost like a cause and effect, but in math terms! Now that we know that an input and output is, lets look at the picture. There are two crooked lines: one in red and the other in blue. The red has a equation of y=g(x) and the blue has an equation of y=f(x). You ...
Introduction to Algebra 1: Identify Inequalities, Equations, and Expressions
Before getting into one and two step inequalities, let's first understand what they are. If you have read my other posts, you would know that equations have equal signs, whereas expressions do not. To learn more visit: http://skynotes.steveyan.com/algebraic-expressions/ Algebraic Expressions Equations: Post coming soon. First, let's test your knowledge. Which of these is an inequality? A: 2x+7-9 B: 5x≥ 90 C: 3=x-4=8 If you answered B, ding ding! That's correct. Now, you may have just guessed, so I'll explain how it it is an inequality furthermore. These symbols: ≥ ≤ might make you go, "What?" These symbols are actually very easy to understand. You have probably seen these symbols: ><. These mean greater or less than. The first two symbols look exactly the same, but with a line under them. The line stands for, "equal." When writing x<5 or x is less than 5, x cannot be equal to 5 because it is exactly equal to 5. But with this symbol, ≤ ...
Book Project: The Book of Lost Things by John Connolly P.2/ Sequel or Aftermath
An Aftermath of the book, “The Book of Lost things” by John Connolly by Shannon Yan Before you read… Learn more about , “The Book of Lost Things” here: The Book of Lost Things Summary. Chapter 1 If there were any words to describe David, it would be something relative to acrimony. He was strong-minded and unwilling, resenting responsibilities when not urged. “Hmm..it is nearly 10. I shall head back home,” said David, peering at his watch. He strolled through the rough brick walls of the corridor with his long, dark suit. His coffee black loafers clacked after every step, playing an off-beat melody. Full-growns and children fixed the man with questionable looks. Shifting uncomfortably, David moved his pedora to overshadow his visage. See, David was quite popular back then. When he was a child, he developed some abnormal sights and sounds he had never seen. The books started talking to him, and a strange man would come to his house every now ...
Unfinished Stories
I have not been updating this blog lately 😅 I have been busy with a lot of workouts and writing! Here are some unfinished stories of mine: The Orphanage of West Way We sit at the long, oak table gazing at the shiny polish. Our repasts are destined to be bread and mash, although the --- could possibly spare some soup on the side as well… Girls surround me in every direction, their faces planted with ghastly stares. Cold lips and glistening eyes are composed in their lifeless faces. Glancing at the oak table, I reverie my parents. “Where did they go?” I wonder. What did I do?” Why did-.” My thoughts seize their release as our repasts arrive. I reveal the dish. pulling off the cover to reveal, yet again, the familiar mash and bread. The bread’s texture fails to be consumed, it's hard, crusty and sour taste resulting. The math could have mistakenly identified as liquid, its runniness probably caused by an accidental dosage of water. The ...
Carbon dioxide: The world’s biggest nightmare
CO2, (commonly known as carbon dioxide), is an immense problem on this planet. Many animals are losing their habitats every day, as well as people. In the future, people around the world will be breathing carbon dioxide. This gas is harmful to the respiratory system and have a variety of health effects such as headaches, dizziness, and difficulty of breath. How does CO2 affect the planet? What is carbon dioxide? How is it produced? These are common thoughts for questioning. I am about to answer all these questions in one article. What is carbon dioxide? Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas, along with methane, nitrous oxide, and Fluorinated gases. These gases contribute to the heat and temperature of our planet. But we have too many of these, our world will overheat. In this case, we have the exact problem. This leads us to our second questions, how do we spread CO2? How do we spread CO2? Carbon dioxide is spread in many different ways. The biggest contributor to ...
Brainzilla.com: A real head smasher
https://www.brainzilla.com/ (Brainzilla.com) is a great website to test your logic and is a great head smasher. Some games include logic, word, and puzzles. Personally, my favorite game to play on this fun website are the zebra puzzles. Zebra puzzles are logic puzzles that include starting information. For example, "Red is in the first position." There is more information that you must use logic to solve and input. But along the way, your information and problems might cross and cause an exploding headache! If you are lucky, you will only have to move back a few steps. If not, well, back to the drawing board! This website and fun, (but also quite irking). It is also a great game to try with your friends. You can compete for the quickest time, work together, or solve it on your own! Have fun enjoying the website!
