You would think that been overweight would be a major factor, yet some very slim people have them. If its because of age, why doesnt everyone get them? Does anyone know the reason they develop?

I need help and fast.
The problem is: Write an equation for "the sum of 8 times a number and 7 is twice the number."
Here is an example:"6 times the sum of a number and 12 is 40."
6(N + 12) = 40

That's the format the answer is supposed to go in except for the eqaual sign.
Once again the question is to: write an equation for "the sum of 8 times a number and 7 is twice the number."

For example, the processs, the amount of heat needed, maybe even a chemical equation if you have one handy. Also ot be more specific as to what kind of paper I'm talking about, just assume that the paper is average loose-leaf paper that you write on.

Has anyone ever witnessed a photon, or seen a photon cause things that only an inertial particle would cause? I read that photons are massless, so how can they have inertia? If photons are massless, why is it that they can't travel through all mediums? Why is it that the scientists seem to think there are an endless supply of photons.

I understand that sound won't travel through a vacuum. Therefore, light shouldn't be able to travel in a vacuum if it is simply a wave, right? I don't believe so. I believe that solid substances (in terms of particles like protons and electrons) are made of intensely grouped bundles of energy. A vacuum, in turn, would be a level, dispersed, sort of flat region of indifferent energy. Stephen Hawkings suggested this with the string theory.

Where is the proof that light is made of photons???

I understand the photoelectric effect, but it's possible that the particular frequency of the light actually affects the metal (like a resonant frequency) .

Since light has no mass, how does it get pulled by a black hole? For the equation Gm1m2/r^2, m2 = 0, so G should be 0, right?

but what if you put it on your hands and then later lick ketchup off your finger? if it is dry, then does it not matter if you 'ingest' it? please take this seriously, thanks!

also, does anyone know the effect if you DO ingest it or get it in your eye?

you can even just enter how much a sample you saw go for and how big it was, i can convert it to $/gram

and no i am not buying any so no warnings or quotes of the law please

I know that magnesium has two valance electrons and becomes Mg(2+) when it loses it's electrons in an ionic bond, but can it become Mg(1+) by losing just one of it's electrons? Or is that impossible?
