To find the vertex please use the completing the square formula and show how you did it.


x^2 - 2x + 44y + 353 = 0

x^2 + 6x + 8y + 25 = 0


and how do you write these parabolas in the form of y = ax+ b

-48x = y^2

4y^2 = -48x

PLEASE show how you did it.

Assalamu Alaikom Brothers & Sisters,

I've been working on this research in the Holy Qur'an, until I reached Verse 18 in Surat Annaml, where it says in the Arabic word "Yahtemannakom" "لا يحطمنكم سليمان و جنوده و هم لا يشعرون"

Some say that an Australian scientist discovered that 80 to 90% of Ants are made from glass.

But I need to be sure 100%, I searched in Harunyahya.com, in Wikipedia, in 55a.net, in Yahoo & Google. but I found NOTHING.

My question, Is it true that Ants are made from glass?
please give me a link that mentions the name of the one that discovered that and in which year.

May ALLAH bless you all.
Ameen!

I put slate in a bathroom and it has raised the floor a good 3/4 inches. The toilet now leaks. I had a plumber come out and he told me the flange is not high enough an now he will have to cut a hole in the ceiling below the bathroom to cut the flange out and put a new longer one in. Does this sound right?

1. To hear people keep saying: "You know what Im sayin?", "That's what I'm talkin' about."

2. To hear people keep saying "Like" in between words. (example: It's like crazy. I'm like totally out of it.)

3. To hear people saying a lot of "double negative" sentence. ("You Ain't know Nothing." "You are Not helping Nobody.")

I had the honor of meeting him and having a brief conversation with him at the National Press Club in D.C.
I always felt as though his death was over shadowed by the death of Princess Di. Everyone seemed to be out of tears and energy after her death.
This is a fabulous tape of some snippets of a few of his songs.
His voice is SO incredible.

He's omniscient, so he knows exactly what is necessary to make you believe, and yet he falls just below that, allowing you to go to this place "Hell" that he created knowing it would be used to torture misled souls.

Isn't He such a loving god? I wish my parents loved me that much...

My car was recently in a flood. We had some bad weather and there was standing water in my neighborhood that got into my car just above the bottom of the doors. The interior carpet is soaked and smells really bad. The insurance company took an estimate and gave me about $400 to clean the carpet and replace the carpet padding. I have been reading and it seems that a lot of people are saying that I may have electrical problems later on. The engine fluids do not have water in it and it is running fine. Can anyone give me their opinion on whether I will have electrical trouble later on from this?
