Question:including all work, notes, tests, which one would most likely take up more space?

Answers:I think physics will take up more space because I took biology last year and I didn't get that much notes. I never took physics but now I am taking chemistry and it is similar to physics, and I have more notes in chemistry than biology.

Question:English 11 (Dual Credit -- get credit with college -- NOT AP) Algebra 2 AP Biology Chemistry American History Psychology/Sociology (Psych for one semester, Sociology the other semester) SAT Prep Class I need to get all A's this year to qualify for a scholarship. Can you give me good advice on how to maintain focus on school work and not on social life? On how to pass the SAT and ACT? How to stay organized? Thank you!! Your help is greatly appreciated!

Answers:You have a great schedule. Looks pretty challenging to me. Just study hard and keep track of your days. Use an agenda book to keep track of your homework assignments, important exam dates, presentations, projects, etc. Focusing on school work is great, but you need to have somewhat of a social life too to balance your schedule. Too much school work can burn you out and then you won't perform as well in school. For the SAT's and ACT's, just keep doing practice questions. Practice questions are the best way to prepare. Sometimes the questions will reappear on your exam because every once in a while a past question will appear. My SAT had a question that I had on my PSAT. You're also in pretty good shape taking an SAT Prep Class because it will show the tricks to doing well. I'd also recommend www.number2.com. It's a great website that will give you SAT and ACT prep for free. I've starting using it too. It gives you some basic information and some tricks. It breaks the 3 main sections of the SAT into subsections (ex: math they have arithmetic, algebra, geometry, etc). Also, you can take a couple of SAT practice tests. You could take a book out of the library (though this is usually a whole prep book and that might just be too much for you at once) or you can go online to www.collegeboard.com. I know that there's one SAT practice test. I'm not sure if the ACT has a practice test, but you could do the ACT question of the day, every day if you wanted to. I hope this helps! Good luck with your Junior year!

Question:I'm making a 72(progress report grade) in Biology Pre-Ap but I really want to bring it up to a B+ or preferably an A. I have worked so hard in that class but the problem is the test he gives us. We are now doing an animal kingdom notebook project and we are allowed to use our notes, but when it is test time, it's not easy looking through the whole notebook secton in less than 50 mins on a 40-50 question test. Please, what are some advice to help me prepare better on my test. I write my notes in a sub-divided format( I forgot what the format is called) so they are very organized. I don't know, I don't think I study enough but I really want to do well on my next test and this six weels report card. Please help(Tips!!, are welcome) ---------------- -10 points-best answer -5 stars -added contact(if I already added you, I'll answer 1 or 2 of your questions) p.s I have one week because after this week is final exams and I would like some tips to prepare for the biology exam... thx

Answers:It is good you can use your notes, but don't use them as a crutch. I home schooled my daughter and she always did well on the animal kingdom because she loves animals. Math went in one ear and out the other. To this day, she has problems with math. It is not that she can't do it, it is her attitude toward it. My point, hit the books and fall in love with the subject. I know it sounds hard, but you are seeing the animals a seperate. In the larger picture, they are a part of us. Find out how. My husband and I went to 'The Bodies Exhibit' when we were in Vegas. He didn't want to go at first, but then he changed his thinking about it and enjoyed it. It had a bunch of bodies sliced in different ways so you can see inside the human body, in case you never heard of it. You would be surprised how some parts of our inner bodies look like different fish and animals. It was amazing. Anyway, attitude is key. Once you make the decision to really know the subject, you will be more aware of thing you wouldn't have noticed before. Just learning it for a test will only get you so far. Learning to have an understanding and really seeing the subject will give you a greater understanding and then you will be able to mark references that will take you quicker to areas with facts that will be usable on your test. Use those post it tabs to help you move quicker. I hope I helped you. Good luck.

Question:tgA = 2; alpha = a sin^2(a) + 12sin(a) cos(a) +cos^2(a) / sin(a) + sin(a) cos(a) -2cos^2(a) please help, and fully explain process. Thank you.

Answers:What you wrote means: sin^2(a) + 12sin(a) cos(a) + (cos^2(a) / sin(a)) + sin(a) cos(a) -2cos^2(a) This answer will assume you meant: (sin^2(a) + 12sin(a) cos(a) +cos^2(a) ) / (sin(a) + sin(a) cos(a) -2cos^2(a)) Divide top and bottom by cos^2(a) and replace sin/cos by tan ( = tg): = (tan^2(a) + 12tan(a) + 1) / (tan(a)/cos(a) + tan(a) - 2), substitute tan(a)=2: = (4 + 24 + 1) / (2/cos(a) + 2 - 2) = 29 cos(a) / 2 Now draw a right triangle with legs 1 and 2 so tan(a) = 2 and observe that cos(a) = 1/sqrt(5). Thus we get: 29 cos(a) / 2 = 29sqrt(5) / 10 for the final answer. Note: I also assume that by tgA=2 you meant tan(a) = 2. A clearer question would get better answers.
