Like there's this 1 professor at my college who has tons of bad reviews but then there's 1 review that says all nice things. I'm thikning she wrote that one herself.
My Q is, do you think profs write a review for themselves with all positive comments. AND if you are a prof, do you look at your ratemyprofessor reviews or write a review yourself?

I normally wouldnt ask this, but I was home sick when my algebra teacher explained these factoring concepts and then he half-*** explained it, by doing the problem for me instead of teaching me the process. He wont let me use that as an excuse so I am stuck. Please give me whatever answers you can or just explain how to do these..


Factor the following polynomials completely.
4.X to the second (i dont know how to do the little two) -9X-36
5.4y to the second-12y+80
6.3mn+6mp+2nq+4pq
7.36X to the second-y to the second
8.3X to the second-12+12
9.X to the second-5X+9
10.14ab-7b to the second+49abc

Define a perfect trinomial.

3x(x+5)=0

I'M N 8TH GRADE AND I HAVE TO DO THESE PROJECTS WHERE I PICK AN AFRICAN AMERICAN WHO HAD A ROLE IN BLACK HISTORY. I DID HALF OF IT NOW I NEED THE OTHER HALF WHICH IS TO TELL WHAT THESE QUOTES ARE SAYING.
“Somebody must show that the Afro-American race is more sinned against than sinning, and it seems to have fallen upon me to do so.”

"The only times an Afro-American who was assaulted got away has been when he had a gun and used it in self-defense."

"Brave men do not gather by thousands to torture and murder a single individual, so gagged and bound he cannot make even feeble resistance or defense."

I am currently a junior in high school, and I have a dilemma about what sport to take. Right now I am wondering what would help most in terms of getting into a UC college like berkeley,UCLA, or UCSD etc. I can take track right now and be in varsity, swim and be jv, or tennis and be jv. I am wondering if sports are really that importanta towards colleges because I would prefer using this year to workout and do some other special training that I have planned. So my question is first of all, do sports really contribute much for acceptance to a UC (I have two years of cross country), and if they do should I go for Track (varsity), Tennis(JV), or Swim(JV). Truthfully i am not looking forward to joining any of the teams, and i am not an extremely good runner in any case, meaning i would not be noticed by any college scouts or probably even make any teams in college. My three mile time is around 17:05, and my mile is 5:14. Do you think colleges will care? Thank You guys!

ok so here it is straight from the official place:


Topic: National Service

Resolved: The United States federal government should establish a policy substantially increasing the number of persons serving in one or more of the following national service programs: AmeriCorps, Citizen Corps, Senior Corps, Peace Corps, Learn and Serve America, Armed Forces.

so basically the argument is over whether the gov. should est. a policy increasing the # of ppl serving right? (correct me if im wrong)


so as of right now im on the con side. i need help backing up why the gov. should not est. a policy like that. what do you think? how would you back that up?

I've been accepted to all three, but only received merit based aid from George Washington. I'm not quite sure what area of law I will be going into or where I'll want to practice. Right now, I am thinking of working at a big law firm in either New York or D.C. I would also like to keep my options open for going into academia in the future.
