I'm 16 and I like to debunk many stereotypes and misconceptions that ignorance has led to, being a victim of these stereotypes and misconceptions myself.
Precalculus Final Tomorrow--A Few Questions? (Parametric form of an equation)?
Write the parametric form of the equation of the line through the points (-1, 2, 5) and (3, -1, 0).
The answer is:
x = -1 + 2t
y = 2 - 3t
z = 5 - 3t
I need to know how the answers were derived. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
1 AnswerMathematics1 decade agoWi-Fi Online Play for Super Smash Bros. Brawl--Disappointing?
Just recently, I found out that playing anyone in the world on Wi-Fi connection for Super Smash Bros. Brawl is not what I expected--at all. The matches virtually don't count for anything; there is no ranking system and no nicknames are used so you don't even know who you are versing. If someone disconnects from the game, that character automatically becomes a computer, unknown to the rest of the players. Playing online in this way is not much different then just playing with three other computers--the matches don't count and you are playing for nothing. Could there perhaps be some update that Nintendo could come up with since it is online in order to change this? Are there really major security issues for the players if these matches somehow counted and the nicknames were shown? Is anyone else dissatisfied?
Don't get me wrong, I can't wait for this game to come out and I have been waiting for it for ages. But the online play around the world just didn't meet my expectations..
8 AnswersNintendo Wii1 decade agoShare a unique combination of food that actually goes good together but sounds weird or gross but is awesome!?
I will share one:
Spread jelly on bread, and put grated parmesan cheese on top. Simple, enjoy! It may sound disgusting, but it is actually really good! You should try it :)
Here is another that is more ethnic:
(Plain) Yogurt and rice. Mix yogurt into your individual plate (don't overdo it) and it is surprisingly good. I am not sure how widespread or known this is, but I know it is no foreign or homemade practice.

Computer Networking1 decade agoIsn't this video so sad...? You won't ever see this on the news!?
Heres the link. Just showing you a glimpse of the other side of the story that will never be seen by the eyes of the west under the manipulation of the media. You'll see why. Please tell what you think about this video:

If you have a weak heart, I do not recommend watching it. If you have an open heart to the truth, please watch it.
16 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoIs there any way you can direct one of your questions to only your contacts?
I have a question, but I only want my contacts to see it. I don't want to make my profile private either. Its just one question. Does this feature exist?
6 AnswersYahoo Answers1 decade agoWhat will happen to people who were never introduced to the "right" religion, and it is not their fault?
For example, some unknown, mysterious tribes may exist deep in tropical rainforests or jungles that no one has discovered. They live and die not knowing that today's technology exists, and there was no possible way of them knowing of any religion except their own, if they have one. And therefore they were never introduced to the truth (whatever it may be, I am not endorsing any specific belief).
Assuming God, Heaven, and Hell exist, obviously God would not just send them all to Hell; they were not given a chance, and God is righteous. What will come to be of these people? What would their fates be in the afterlife?
I know we cannot make these judgements and only God knows, but what do you think?
12 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoHow come there are so many Christians that are not religious yet celebrate holidays like Christmas vigorously?
Many of these people don't even know the meaning of Christmas, yet abuse it just to get presents and have a good time with family and friends. It is probably the only day of the year where they are truly "Christian". It seems that the most non-religious Christians benefite from such holidays the most...
I've noticed that people of other religions do not abuse their holidays (as much) and at least have a decent understanding of the holiday and don't only pretend to be that religion on holidays.
13 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoThe Bible: The Word of God or the Fabrication of Man?

8 AnswersOther - Society & Culture1 decade agoIs it true that monies collected at Church are used in lawsuits to defend priests who have sexually abused?
The money that you donate every time you go to Church--is it true that a lot of that money goes to funding the lawsuits defending priests who have sexually abused children?
Many of you have probably never heard of this, and you will probably strongly disagree due to this. But its true, (I believe) a lot of the money you donate goes to a cause you would have never thought it to go to--does this mean the Church is corrupt?

6 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoPlease share your ghost/supernatural stories! And please don't make them up...?
I hope they are all valid, and I'm looking forward to viewing this! I guess the freakiest/scariest story will earn best answer.
BTW, since this is not really a question, I'm not sure if I can ask this, sorry if I am breaking the rules...can I maybe get this approved? I'm not even sure what category to label it under.
6 AnswersMythology & Folklore1 decade agoHow come many of my Christian/Catholic friends make it a goal to get "laid" before marriage?
Many (not all) of my Christian friends love to drink, do drugs, and get laid. I find this much less common amongst my Jewish, Muslim, and Hindu friends. Do these actions undermine Christianity? Now I'm not saying Jews, Muslims, and Hindus do not do these things. However, it is less common to witness this. Why are so many Christians/Catholics less religious than other groups? Does this say anything about the religion? I notice that, in general, Christians are much more lenient and flexible with their religion, and many of my Christian friends do not know the significance of Easter or Christmas, and look at them as present day and play time and feast. I'm just wondering why Christian's are more prone to peer pressure and do not follow their religion as well as non-Christians.
