Talking to Your Parents
Sure, you talk to your parents, but what if you need to really talk? Maybe you have a problem you can't solve alone. Or it could be that you want to feel closer to your Mom and Dad.
It's easy to say "Hi, Mom" or "Dad, can you pass the potatoes?" It can be harder to start talking about personal topics. Still, it's good to confide in your parents. In fact, it can help a lot.
Be Brave and Start Talking
Let's face it, talking about personal stuff can feel embarrassing. But remember, your parents know you pretty well — and they were your age once, too! So don't let a little embarrassment stop you. It's OK to go ahead and share what's on your mind.
Some kids might think if they share a problem, they'll make a parent worried or upset. But your mom or dad can handle knowing about your problem, big or small. If they look concerned, it just means they care, and that they feel for you.
Here's how I like to represent this:
Randy = 7
Randy * 2 = Ann
Ann + 3 = Janet
Janet + 5 = Donald
If we go along and fill in the blanks for each equation, we do this:
7 * 2 = 14
14 + 3 = 17
17 + 5 = 22
So Donald solved 22 problems.
Hope this helps!
How many square feet of the entrance way floor consists of white tiles?
(6.5 x 4) squared = 6.5 x 4 = 26 squared= 676 square feet
The distance between any two points is:
d^2=(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2 so in this case:
d^2=(7-4)^2+(-3-6)^2
d^2=3^2+9^2
d^2=90
d=√90
d=3√10 units
d≈9.49 units (to nearest hundredth of a unit)
