Education & Reference - 2 October 2006

I'm trying to help My son out with his homework and I can't.. Sad to say... He has 20 problems and if someone can help explain one to me I should be able to help him with the reset.. I just need a guideline to go by..

Question 1 -

A map key shows that every 3 centimeters represents 60 miles. Which proportion could be used to determine the number of miles represented by 8 centimeters?

A - 60/3 = 8/m
B - 3/8 = m/60
C - 3/5 = 60/m
D - 3/60 = 8/m

I need to know HOW TO GET THE ANSWER not just the answer.. This way I can help him on the rest...

Thanks a bunch to anyone that can help..

American historian Thomas Kuhn regarded the acceptance of heliocentic theory as an index of a revolution
"A belief in earth -centered universe was gradually transformed from an essential sign of sanity to an index , first, of inflexible conservatism , then of excessive parochialism, and finally of complete fanaticism."
Explain and paraphrase this quote in ten sentences, please!

Ok..i am entering my 2nd year of university.

and i really dont feel like i am learning anything. I believe i am a very intelligent guy..and not one of those all brains and no common sense students.

I just feel although i am wasting my time here where i could be doing something more productive i dont mean just working a run of the mill job i just think i was destined to do somerthing spectacular and is it really worth it to get piece of paper.

can u suggest a nice title for this poem?

You are who you are for a reason.
You're part of an intricate plan.
You're a precious and perfect unique design,
Called God's special woman or man.

You look like you look for a reason.
Our God made no mistake.
He knit you together within the womb,
You're just what He wanted to make.

The parents you had were the ones He chose,
And no matter how you may feel,
They were custom designed with God's plan in mind,
And they bear the Master's seal.

No, that trauma you faced was not easy.
And God wept that it hurt you so;
But it was allowed to shape your heart
So that into His likeness you'd grow.

You are who you are for a reason,
You've been formed by the Master's rod.
You are who you are, beloved,
Because there is a God!
