Yahooanswr how to gain points

1. You are still in level 1 and at this level you will not be able to vote. When you first begin participating on Yahoo! Answers, you got 100points (one time deal)<br />You can log in once every day to gain 1 point. For example we have 7 days in a week, 30 t0 31 days in a month and 365 days in a year. With that if you log in once a day you will earn 7 points for the week, 30 or 31 points a month or 365 points for the year. It isn’t awesome and easy? <br />The next thing is that you can answer questions and earn 2 points. At your lever, you will be allowed to answer 20 questions per day and you earn 2 points per question for a total of (2x 40) 40 points. As you go to the higher level the amount of questions you will be able to answer will also increase. <br />If you answer is chosen as the best you will earn 10pints. Hooray for you!<br />If you delete an answer that you post, you will lose 2. Why does one have to do that? Don’t ever do that just make sure you try your best in answering the question so that later on you will not need to do such a thing.<br />You can ask questions. Every time you ask a question, you are using up 5 points, but if you choose your own best answer then you will receive 3 points back again. <br />You take the community guidelines quiz for 20 points. This is the URLfor the quiz. http://answers.yahoo.com/info/community_guidelines/quiz<br />Want to know how accurate you are when you report abuse? Take our quiz and see how well you really know the Community Guidelines. Complete the quiz successfully and we'll even award you a bonus 20 points.<br />This is where you will get information about the points (cut and paste) http://answers.yahoo.com/info/scoring_system;_ylt=AqYJRvTu2PX0Rs.QhXGVSPU_zKIX;_ylv=3 <br />Points and Levels<br />To encourage participation and reward great answers, Yahoo! Answers has a system of points and levels. The number of points you get depends on the specific action you take. The points table below summarizes the point values for different actions. While you can't use points to buy or redeem anything, they do allow everyone to recognize how active and helpful you've been. (And they give you another excuse to brag to your friends.)<br />Points Table<br />ActionPointsBegin participating on Yahoo!

<br />Levels<br />Levels are another way to keep track of how active you (and others) have been. The more points you accumulate, the higher your level. And finally, as you attain higher levels, you'll also be able to contribute more to Yahoo! Answers - you can ask, answer, vote and rate more frequently.<br />LevelPointsQuestionsAnswersCommentsStarsRatingsVotes725,000+* unlimited *100unlimited200610,000 - 24,999* unlimited *100unlimited15055,000 - 9,999* unlimited *100unlimited12542,500 - 4,999208040100unlimited10031,000 - 2,499156030100unlimited752250 - 999104020100unlimited5011 - 24952010100<br />kenpolicard@bloodofedenmovie.com<br />Find the distance between the pair of points (4,-4) and (-4,-10)?<br /> Start with the distance formula.<br />First write the problem (4,-4) and (-4,-10)?<br />Next label the x and y: (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) as you can see in our problem <br /> x1 = 4 and x2 = -4 y1 = -4 and y2 = -10<br />Formula: Distance = the square root of ( x1 –x2) 2square + (y1 –y2) 2square<br /> Formula again in a simple form: d=sqrt [(x2-x1)^2 + (y2-y1)^2]<br />Now we are going to use the formula to plug in the number D = sqrt [(4- (-4))^2 + (-10- -(4))^2]<br />We going to work from inside to the outside first let get rid of the first Parenthesis and we will have<br />D= sqrt [(4+4))^2 + (-10-+4)^2]<br />Now let get rid of the second parenthesis and we will have:<br />D= sqrt [8^2 + (-6)^2]<br />Now we are going to square D= sqrt [64 + 36]<br />Now we are going to add 64 with 36<br />= sqrt [100]<br />Now we square root (sqrt ) 100= sqrt [100]= 10<br />Subtracting Negative and Positive Integers<br />To subtract integers, change the sign on the integer that is to be subtracted.<br />If both signs are positive, the answer will be positive.Example: 14 + 6 = 20<br />If both signs are negative, the answer will be negative. U wil add and keep the signExample: -14 - (+6) = -14 - 6 = -20<br />If the signs are different subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger absolute value. The absolute value of a number is always positive. The sign will be the sign of the integer that produced the larger absolute value. Example: 14 - 6 = 8 <br />The absolute value of 14 is 14 and the absolute value of -4 is 4 which one is great 14 or 4 so in this case you answer will positive <br />Example: --14 + 6 = -8<br />The absolute value ot -14 is 14 and -4 = 4which absolute value is greater 14 or 4 in the case 14 I greater but it has a negative sing in front of it so our answer going to be negative<br />y=x+23x-2y=20<br />First we have y=X+ 2 in this case you will have to substitute the value of y in the second equation and you will have:<br />3x -2(x+2) = 20<br />You need to get rid of the parenthesis. To do that you will need to multiply everything inside the parenthesis by -2 and you will have:<br />3x-2x -4 =20<br />Then now you will combine like terms. In this case there is only one like term on the left side of the equal sign which is (3x-2x) then you will end up with:<br />X-4 =20<br />Now, will need to solve for x. What you will do is to add +4 both side. The reason we say +4 because in the problem we have -4 and we need to eliminate -4 on the left side of the equation so that we can have x by itself. To do that we need to use the opposite of -4 which is +4? Then we will have -4 +4 which will give o. Remember when solving equation whatever you do in one side of the equal sign you have to do it also on the other side. Therefore you will set it up like this:<br /> X-4 =20<br /> +4 = 20 +4 (add +4 both side from where u see x it will give 0 then 4 will be eliminated from the x side)<br />You will end up with:<br />X = 24 (this is the value of x)<br />Now you will need to go back the problem and substitute the value of x on the first equation which is<br /> y =x+2<br />Let substitute the value of x remember we just solve for the value of x which is equal to24<br /> y =x+2<br /> y = 24 +2 (substitute the value of x)<br /> y = 26<br />There is the solution:<br /> (x, y)<br /> (24, 26)<br />As I go along with solving the problem, I tried to explain to you all the steps so that u can understand everything. I hope that next time, when you will have a similar problem, you will know how to find out the solution on own. You will be able to you if you will practice and applied these steps.<br /> Are you freshman in High school or College? I am sending you these web sites to help you start.
