Answer:
The reason the Kiowas hung a buffalo hide upon the medicine tree in order to fulfill their annual rites was because there were no buffalos available for them to use.
Explanation:
The Kiowas carry out an annual rite known as the Sun Dance. During the rites, they used a buffalo. They hang the head of a buffalo on a medicine tree.
But during the 1887 Sun Dance rite which was the last Sun Dance Kiowa had, they didn't find any buffalos to consummate their rites. Therefore, they hung an old hide skin on the sacred tree.
"The Way to Rainy Mountain" was written by N. Scott Momaday, a Pulitzer Prize winner. The story recounts the journey of the Kiowa's ancestors, how they started in Montana, their way and surrender to United States Calvary, Fort Sill and final resettlement near Rainy Mountain, Oklahoma.

Go rest if you don't fell well.
When you're simplifying equations, you have to collect the like terms (the similar ones, eg- fractions would be like terms, and so would letters).
When you're simplifying, you also have to take note of the operation before the equation.
1) Firstly, collect the like terms of M (M and -4M). As M comes before -4M, you have to add -4M to M. As -4M is a negative, this overwrites the addition, and this becomes M-4M. This then gives you -3M. The same applies to the fractions, as you have -1/6 + 5/6, you have to add 5/6 to -1/6, and this gives you 4/6, or 2/3 simplified. Therefore, you put these together- and this gives you -3M + 4/6, however, you normally have a negative number second, so one this has been rearranged, this gives you 4/6-3m.
2). Same applies to this one, you also have to collect the like terms of W. 2.3W and -3W. You simply have to subtract -3W from 2.3W, and this gives you -0.7W. You now have to collect the numbers, and you have -7 and 8. 8 is a positive, therefore, you have to add 8 to -7, giving you 1. Therefore, when you collect the like terms, this gives you -0.7W+1. As aforementioned, you cannot have a negative first, so one this is rearranged, this gives you 1-0.7W
Hope this helps :)
