@bluegrassbird - the easiest theme to discuss is the one you like the most, know more things about and / or that brings up a lot of debate on whether it's good or bad. So, from the ones you exemplified here, I'd probably go with social media: we're all familiar with it, you have a lot of discussions and whatnot on the internet about the pros and cons (such as ease to connect with people all over the world, contacting family members far away, etc. as opposed to dependency, alienation, lack of privacy, among others) and you can easily share that wih your class c:

This is what I'd pick, but like I said, the easiest one to discuss is the one you're the most comfortable with, know more about and have a lot of different aspects to develop (consider the time you have to your speech: with less time you should pick something with fewer aspects if you want to solidly develop the theme). I hope this helps with your choice!

@aequilibrium
Thank you! I really love your well thought out response, it was really helpful to me along with your example that you gave. Appreciate the insight! <3 Thank you responding

I need some help please :c homework being a pain, as usual

e. The boundaries between the Eurasian Plate and the Indo-American PLate as well as the Nazca plate and the south american plate are convergent boundaries. What is a major difference in the geologic features and events at these two plate boundaries?
that's it :c

that's it :c

The Eurasian and Indo-Australian plate (I think that's what you meant?) fault line is continent-continent convergent boundary, creating mountains such as the Himalayan mountains.
The Nazca and South American plate fault line is an ocean-continent convergent boundary, creating a trench called the Peru–Chile Trench and the Andes Mountains.
Hope this helps!

I HAVE A QUESTION!

TYPE OF QUESTION:(answer here e.g.. Math, sciences)
Math (Statistics)

YOUR QUESTION:
So we're working on frequency distributions, and I'm doing some of the online homework and am running into a recurring problem.
When a problem gives you the beginning lower class limit and class width, how do you know what to make the upper class limits?
Like in this problem they subtracted 0.1 from each lower class limit to get the previous class's upper class limit, but in this one (which was a worked out example, I've only screenshotted part of it to show you) they subtracted 0.001.
(Here's the table that the second problem is referring to)

Thank you! ♥

Math, rational numbers
YOUR QUESTION:Recently we have been learning about multiplying/dividing rational numbers, except I was not really listening during class so I missed the "technique" My class used to properly/accurately multiply/divide fractions with negative/positive signs. Could someone give me a technique I can use? I know how to add negative/ positive fractions I'm just having trouble with multiplying and dividing them. For example, −1/4×(−4/3)= ? How would I solve this?

multiplying/dividing simple fractions is pretty simple; you don't need to have a common denominator for it.

for multiplying, what you do is multiply all the numerator values together, and then all the denominators. your answer should be the product of the numerators over the denominators.

ex. (3/4)*(6/10)=(3*6)/(4*10)=(18/40) and don't forget to simplify! =(9/20)

division is like multiplying but you have to flip the values of the divisor (the number after the divide symbol). once you place the numerator in the denominator and the denominator in the numerator, you multiply them the same way as i mentioned before.

ex. (3/4)/(6/10)=(3/4)*(10/6)=(30/24)=(5/4).

i hope this helps!

Oh it does! Thanks!!! But i have some more questions, so what if a mixed fraction is involved? Would you just turn it into a improper fraction and do exactly as you said before? And what if a negative sign is involved? Would it be the same or is there a different way of doing it when a negative is involved?

Oh it does! Thanks!!! But i have some more questions, so what if a whole number is involved? Would you just turn it into a improper fraction and do exactly as you said before? And what if a negative sign is involved? Would it be the same or is there a different way of doing it when a negative is involved?

Yes, if there's a whole number, it will be easier to do math on if you turn it into an improper fraction. When you get your answer, you can always simplify it there.

What to do with the negative sign depends on the action being taken. You deal with negatives in fractions the same way you deal with negatives in whole numbers, though.
So if you have a negative times a negative, it will turn into a positive. If you have a negative times a positive, you should end up with a negative. If you have a positive plus a negative, you can consider that a positive minus a positive. If you have a positive minus a negative, you can consider that a positive plus a positive. Etc.

Maybe if you have a few problems/examples, we could help work through them with you so you have something to reference? ^^
