Let the function f be defined by f(x) = x2 - 7x + 10 and f(t + 1) = 0, what is one possible value of t?

Please explain. I don't understand why you can substitute in "t+1" for the "x" in the other equation.

I am curious as to how we can increase/expand our learning capacity. This includes logic, memory, and cognitive skills. Can anyone please answer this question? By increasing, I mean helping the brain develope better. Also, I want natural ways such as reading, chess, etc. Also, what are some memory, logic and cognitive exercises that we can do? Thanks in advance.

I usually wear black nail polish, but I want to try something else. I'm not really a pink or red kind of girl. :P So what do you think about silver polish? It's a little less common then black like i usually wear, but I do want something unique. Im just wondering if you think it might look cheap or trashy. (oh i dress kind of professional [blazers, skinny jeans] and a tad bit emo. always conservative.)

Ron Paul has been working to end the genocide being committed by the government of the United States (both the Democrat and Republican branches) against the Iraqi people. He has been working to get the troops out of harms way. He is a peacemaker who is trying to end the US policy of destabilizing the Middle East and provoking terrorism.

Al Gore has made a documentary about global warming (which is of dubious accuracy), which has absolutely nothing to do with peace. Shouldn't the Nobel Peace Prize have gone to Ron Paul and his supporters for attempting to end the War on Iraq?

I have a 5 yr old and an almost 2yr old and suddenly I am feeling all I want to do is get away from my kids. It seems lately they are noisier and naughtier than usual. They are whingy and never tidy up after themselves, my 5yr old has come home from daycare violent and trash-mouthed and now I am at my wits end. Mostly they are both really good kids with terrific manners. It's just lately I don't want them. I can't stand the noise and the mess. No matter what I do I just can't be calm and patient. we have recently shifted house after living with my parents for over a year, I know the change is hard on us all, but I thought it was for the best, have I made a mistake? How can I get back to be a loving patient mother, cause this just isn't me.

A story I heard on the radio:

A husband & wife could not conceive a child because the husband had a low sperm count, so they obtain the strong sperm and put it in the wife and they had a child. The rest of the sperm was kept frozen.

The husband & wife divorced. The ex-wife wanted another child by her husband so the doctor implanted her again.

Then the mother has a second child and files for child support.

The father says he didn't have anything to do with fathering this child even though his sperm was used from the frozen bank.

So they go to court. The judge has to decide who the father of the child should be and choses the doctor to be the legal father because it was the doctor who impregnated the wife.

The doctor turns out to be a female doctor.

I found this story to be quite humorous but also leaves much room for discussion and thought.

So what are your thoughts?

HERE ARE SOME FACTS YOU SHOULD BE AWARE OF:
1. The earth has been in existence for 3 billion years. Who has any proof that the Earth is heating up faster than it ever has before? Or that a hurricane that happened in 2005 was worse than some other hurricane that was never recorded? Or that the polar ice caps didn't melt this fast when the first ice age ended?
2. Polar bears can swim for hundreds of miles without drowning. They've been around longer than we have. How do you think they survived the last global warming?
3. We are in the TAIL END OF AN ICE AGE. Yes, the planet is heating up - naturally.
4. There was more carbon dioxide in the air forty years ago. EXAMPLE: When you are driving, do you often see thick, black smoke coming out of cars? NO, NOT OFTEN. Back then, that pollution was coming out of every single vehicle.
5. Studies have shown that the Sun is burning brighter than it did fifty years ago.

I have more facts, but there is no more space.

NOW PROVE ME WRONG.

I was shocked, confused, bewildered

as I entered Heaven's door,

Not by the beauty of it all,

nor the lights or its decor.



But it was the folks in Heaven

who made me sputter and gasp--

the thieves, the liars, the sinners,

the alcoholics, the trash



There stood the kid from seventh grade

who swiped my lunch money twice.

Next to him was my old neighbor

who never said anything nice.



Herb, who I always thought

was rotting away in hell,

was sitting pretty on cloud nine,

looking incredibly well.



I nudged Jesus, "What's the deal?

I would love to hear Your take.

How'd all these sinners get up here?

God must've made a mistake.



"And why is everyone so quiet,

so somber? Give me a clue."

"Hush, child," said He, "they're all in shock.

No one thought they'd be seeing you."



Judge NOT.



Let the Lord be your Judge.......
