I'm trying to buy a house but have one 30 day late payment on my auto loan that is hurting my credit score. I only have one retail card and one auto loan on my credit. If I pay down my auto loan $13,000 and leave a balance of $10,000 will my credit score go up? Or down? I know I shouldn't pay off the auto loan but I'm wondering if paying it down will help my debt ratio and increase my overall score...does anyone know?

We've been married 6 years and I am completely in love with him but a few months ago he started hanging out with an old group of high school buddies who are responsibility and stress free. They drink, hook up with random girls, and have no kids or wives to deal with. Well this led to them calling me horrible names and telling him that he could do better. One day he just didn't come home. He ignored my calls and refused to talk even to our 4 year old son. I was heartbroken and confused. He's been a great husband and father for 6 years and then he just abandoned us. Well I eventually begged him to come home but not before a week of hell while he was sleeping with and even got a key to another girls house. She was convinced that she was in love with my husband! It was awful but he did the right thing and cut her and all of his friends out of his life. I was thankful but I'm still broken and now I realize how miserable he is here with us. He also hates his good paying career too and talks about moving but I know that wouldn't solve it. The sad part is I don't think that I can fix his unhappiness no matter how hard I try (and trust me I try) and if I can't fix that then I know our marriage is doomed and my prince charming is going to be gone forever! Anyone have any advice or have gone through a similar situation? I feel helpless and quite honestly pathetic for holding on!

My husband's friends constantly criticize me. I get upset because we have a 3 year old that loves both his parents. But, even though we are married it seems I'm the only one in his life. I can't make my husband understand that his staying out all night drinking has an impact on our marriage & our son. His daddy never wants to spend time with him. He just wants to hang out with his friends. Last night I asked him to come home with me at 4:30 in the morning but his friends weren't ready to leave so of course I got told I'll be home "in a little bit" which basically means when he's good and ready. I got so upset that I told him how I felt. He didn't understand where I was coming from but he yelled at me for being too controlling. He went to his friends house where he continued to drink and have fun while I pleaded for my husband to come home. It eventually led to his friend (who has no children of his own) taking the phone and telling me that I need to let my husband do whatever he wants. He told me a woman's place is in the kitchen and my husband was doing his part by working (i work full time too). He said and I know your not the mother that you say you are because of your son's vocabulary. My son talks all the time but gets shy around strangers.I told him to ask my husband how much he talks but my husband didn't speak up. When he finally came home he denied hearing that about our son but I know he heard. I feel as if I'm losing my husband and there's nothing I can do

What is the solution for the problem of finding the area below the mean that is only a portion of the area below the mean?

I never thought I would be on here asking this but how did you know that your husband/wife was cheating on you? Up until recently I've always felt like my husband and I had an almost "perfect" relationship. We have a two year old son together. And, we always try to keep an open line of communication. Honestly, he's my best friend. But lately, I've had a gut feeling that something is wrong. I'm hoping I'm just being paranoid but I googled signs of cheating and unfortunately my husband has been doing most of them. It seems like he works all the time now. I mean it's great because I love having extra money but it seems like he's never home. And, on top of his regular 12 hour a day job he owns a lawn care business so on the weekends he tells me that he has to go work on that. I feel like I'm a single parent most days. And, he's really shady when it comes to his phone. I mean I've never seen any proof (and I've checked a couple times here and there) but he always has random numbers on his phone because of his lawn care business, and he doesn't like me to hold his phone very long. And, he's constantly texting people so if he were texting a girl it's not like I would know. And, tonight just added to my suspicion because he was nice all day and then suddenly he just got in a really bad mood for no reason. I've never seen him act like that before. He's normally very level headed. I asked him what was wrong and he just kept saying I don't know I just feel angry. He blamed it on various little things like me saying that he needs to spend more time with our son (because he does!) and the fact that he saw a guy he doesn't get a long with in wal mart but I just don't buy that those things would make him act that way. I'm so scared, I don't want to admit to myself that this could really be happening to us because we've always been so open with each other. But, he's definitely acting weird. And, since our son's been born he's went from making hardly any money to making more than majority of people our age. I'm not sure what to do. I know if I ask him he's going to deny it....but maybe that's because he really isn't doing it! I seriously need advice!

3x - 10y = 29

The slope is?

The Y-Intercept is?

And, don't tell me to do my homework because I have been working on this stupid equation for over an hour! I just don't understand it. So far I got...

3x-10y=29

-10y+3x=29

-10y=-3x+29

y=3/10x-29/10....right? I don't know maybe I did something wrong but I have no idea how to finish answering the question.....please help!

I had my son a year and a half ago and I gained way more weight than I should have. I've never been a size 2 but now I'm pretty much classified as obese. I've been trying so hard to lose weight the entire year and a half. I did the entire 60 day insanity challenge, meal replacement shakes and everything else I could think of but nothing has helped. I worked my butt off & I still look terrible. I'm only 5 foot maybe a little shorter so It's hard for me to lose weight. But, I hit rock bottom about a month ago. My husband and I are best friends! He's literally the greatest husband anyone could ever ask for. But, about a month ago we were arguing and he basically said he was no longer attracted to me because I "Let myself" get fat! He knows I work out six days a week and only eat about 900 calories a day but yet he still called me fat. He hasn't said it since and I know he feels really bad but the truth comes out when your mad. I keep replaying his words in my head and I just can't help but be depressed. Please help me lose weight! I'll do anything...I don't care if it's healthy or not. I've tried all the healthy diet and exercise things they don't work for me. Has anyone else had this problem? Please help! I'm desperate!

I'm always afraid of sounding like a hypochondriac but the truth is the doctors & nurses in my town are known for being the worst of the worst. They've literally almost killed several people I know by misdiagnosing them. However I'm not a doctor or a nurse so i've never been one to judge but...I'm 38 weeks pregnant and while having sex with my husband last night I felt a pop and then a huge gush of water or some clear liquid. I've never felt anything like it. It felt like a balloon popped inside me. I had been having severe stomach pain all day so after that happened I decided to go to the ER. Well the nurse checked me and said i peed myself but I was skeptical because it didn't trickle it just all came out at once. Well today my symptoms have worsened. I cant sleep and i'm very uncomfortable. My stomach hurts constantly as well as my back. I feel as if my body heats up from the inside (like a hot flash) and then I have chills but I'm not running a fever. I also started having diarrhea but I'm not nauseous and I have an appetite. I looked online and found that she was supposed to leave the test strip in for 60 seconds. She just put it in and pulled it out. Also she put it in the solution and then stuck cotton swab inside me and pulled it out because she said she needed more fluid. Is it possible the test could be wrong? Would the test amnisure be able to pick up the fluid after 24 hours? And should I be concerned that the baby has significantly slowed down on his movements within the last 48 hours? Or am I just being an overly concerned future mother to be?

My last period was on the 25th of May. I usually have around 34 day cycles so my next period is due on June 28th. My husband & I have been ttc for 5 months and so far no luck =( I really don't feel pregnant and after having negative tests for 5 months I honestly don't expect this one to be any different but i'm still anxious to take one. Do you think it would be accurate if I took a first response home pregnancy test today?

I had a miscarriage in February. I was 12 weeks pregnant. My fiance and I really would like to have a baby so we have been trying to get back pregnant but so far I haven't been able to. However since the miscarriage I have felt like a different person. I get mad at my fiance for every little thing. I get very angry and in some cases even violent. I've had several anxiety attacks but right afterwards I feel like myself again. My face has also been breaking out all over & I've never had a problem with acne before. I kept thinking that after a few months my hormones would regulate on their own but so far they have just got worse. I'm always sad or mad about something and I just would like to feel like my normal happy self again. But I don't want to go to a doctor and get on pills because I'm afraid they'll make me feel weird or I'll gain weight. I didn't have mental issues before I got pregnant so I hope this is just temporary. Has anyone experienced anything like this or have any advice for me? I'm afraid that I'm going to lose the most important person in my life if I don't stop being a complete b**** to him.

I had a miscarriage in February but my fiance & I really want a baby so we have been trying to get back pregnant. My last period was on the 12th of March but I took a pregnancy test on the 13th and it said negative. I really think there is a chance that I may be pregnant because before I found out I was pregnant last time it burned for a couple days when I went to pee. I thought I had a UTI but it went away quickly. Well this month I've had the same symptom. Also my boobs are sore and they never get sore when it is time for my period like other women. I want to believe that there is a chance but the test was negative. Has anyone else had this happen to them?

I moved in with my boyfriend in December. I was going to college in a different town but I let my heart lead me and I moved to a different town where I had no friends or family just so I could be with him. Unfortunately I didn't get my prince charming. He has a best friend who will always be more important than me. Don't get me wrong usually I wouldn't mind my boyfriend having friends but this one is an ex convict and sadly my boyfriend always takes his side over mine. Even when his friend calls me a B***** and a whore. One night he got in my face and told me that he was going to hit me. My boyfriend didn't even tell him to calm down. He took his side saying that I shouldn't have talked to him the way I did and made him mad. I've honestly never been so scared in my life! I've always lived in quiet home...no drugs, no alcohol, no fighting. But honestly I know if I stay with my boyfriend I'm not going to have that type of life anymore. It seems like it would be easy to walk away but I keep forgiving & forgetting. He tells me that he loves me & I honestly think he does but the man who I live with and the man that he is when he's around his buddies is different. Last night he took me to my parents house in our home town & ditched me all night to hang out with his buddy. I tried calling all night but he ignored me. Him & his friend laughed about it and said I was psycho because I wen't out looking for him. I thought maybe he had been in a wreck and was hurt. But of course he was fine the whole way home he was a complete jerk but when we got home and it was just us he was really hurt that I broke up with him. He told me that he loved me & he would sleep on the couch until I moved out. I'm so in love with him but I know he couldnt love me and hurt me this much. I guess I'm just looking for encouragement. I'm scared he's going to talk me into staying with him and if I do I'll be living this life forever! Does anyone have any advice?

I had a miscarriage on the 7th of February and my last period was on the 12th of March. So I'm assuming my cycles are around 32 or 33 days long. I've always had long cycles. I know my period isn't due until around the 15th of this month but is there any way that if I took a pregnancy test now it would be accurate?

I had a miscarriage on February 7th. I was about 9 weeks and the miscarriage was all natural so the doctor said we could begin trying again whenever we wanted. My husband and I started trying again as soon as I stopped bleeding. I havent got my period yet and I would like to know if I'm pregnant again. If I took a pregnancy test would it show a false positive or is it likely to be accurate since it has been about a month since the miscarriage.

Has anyone had a miscarriage on their first pregnancy and then got pregnant right away and carried the baby successfully? Me & my husband just had a miscarriage and although I'm terrified to try again we both really want a baby. Is it likely that I will be able to carry the baby next time? I'm still taking my prenatal vitamins so maybe this will help to. I wasn't on them until after I concieved with my first pregnancy.

I took a pregnancy test on the 2nd of january and it was positive. My last period was on November 21st so doctors assumed that I was around 10 weeks. However I knew that was wrong because I have very long cycles and they are very irregular. I never had a cycle less than 32 days. Well yesterday when I went to the doctor and they couldnt detect a heartbeat yet so I had a small ultrasound done. It shown that I was around 6 weeks but the doctor said it could mean that I miscarried. I am 20 years old and my husband is 21. I havent had any symptoms such as morning sickness but I do have to go pee all the time...sometimes even during the middle of the night. Has anyone heard of a situtation like this? Any advice would help. I cant stop thinking about how much I want this baby.

Also when I took the pregnancy test on the 2nd it took around 5 minutes to come back positive...and when I took one yesterday it come back positive within seconds. I dont know if that means maybe I was barely pregnant when I took the first one.
