what would happen If a person who was high/regularly using drugs gave blood, the blood was then transfused into another person. Would that person test positive for drugs and would they become high as the drug travelled into the brain?
(I know this wouldn't happen as blood is screened, but what if?)

I have a 4 story building, about 80 feet high. There is a penthouse on top with 2 dual fuel 2000 MBH boilers and 1 400 kW generator. The boilers are served via one day tank in the boiler room and the generator by the other day tank also in the boiler room (about 20 feet away). The day tanks are served by a main 3000 gallon above ground storage tank on grade. I will have one main pump on the main storage tank pumping to the day tanks. Will I need a return pump from the day tanks to the main tank? How do I size my fuel oil piping? Do I only pump to the day tanks when they are 50% empty? Do most boilers/generator fuel oil pumps have a return line? I am a bit frazzled and this project is due tomorrow.

1.Explain why 0.1 million has to be 100 000

2.a) How many numbers are there between 100 000 and 125 000 where the digits are n order from least to greatest? No digit can be repeated.

b) Which number is the least and which is the greatest?

3. Johann Carl Friedrich Gauss was born on April 30, 1777. He was one of the universal mathematicians; he studied every area of mathematics known at the time. Gauss was a child prodigy. One problem he solved as a child was to add the numbers from 1 to 100.
This may not sound like a big problem (especially with a calculator, which Gauss did not have), but he is said to have done the problem instantly at the age of 7. Try a simpler problem: Add the numbers from 1 to 10. See if you can see a pattern that might have helped Gauss find his sum of the numbers from 1 to 100.
