    • RE: Is it wracking or racking my brain?

      “Nerve-racking” is the original and correct spelling of this phrase, which describes something that makes you extremely nervous. “Nerve-wracking” is a widely-used and well-established variant spelling. Many editors and usage dictionaries find it acceptable, but purists and prescriptivists consider it an error.

      Likewise, what does racking your brain mean? Meaning: To think very hard to find an answer. If you rack your brains, you strain mentally to recall or to understand something. The rack was a mediaeval torture device where the victim was tied to the rack by his arms and legs, which were then practically torn from their bodies.

      Subsequently, question is, what is the difference between rack and wrack?

      The verb wrack means to wreck or cause the ruin of something. As a noun, rack means a frame, a shelf, an instrument of torture, or a state of intense anguish. The noun wrack means destruction or wreckage. Idiomatically, we may rack the billiard balls, rack up points, and roast a rack of lamb.

      What does racking yourself mean?

      to strain in mental effort: to rack ones brains. to strain by physical force or violence. to strain beyond what is normal or usual. to stretch the body of (a person) in torture by means of a rack.

    • RE: How do you find the diameter of a hexagon?

      Because a regular hexagon has six sides of the same length, finding the length of any one side is as simple as dividing the hexagons perimeter by 6. So if your hexagon has a perimeter of 48 inches, you have: 48 inches ÷ 6 = 8 inches. Each side of your hexagon measures 8 inches in length.

      Subsequently, question is, what is the formula for finding the area of a hexagon? Since a regular hexagon is comprised of six equilateral triangles, the formula for finding the area of a hexagon is derived from the formula of finding the area of an equilateral triangle. The formula for finding the area of a hexagon is Area = (3√3 s2)/ 2 where s is the length of a side of the regular hexagon.

      Subsequently, one may also ask, how do you find the side of a hexagon given the diameter?

      Divide your value by 2 if your given value is the length of the center line that creates the middle two triangles within the hexagon. The quotient is the length of the hexagon side. If this value is 8, then the length of one side of the hexagon is 8 divided by 2, which is 4.

      How do you find the diagonal of a regular hexagon?

      To find the diagonals of hexagons, use the formula: n (n-3)/2, where n is the number of sides of a polygon. For a hexagon, n = 6, and 6 (6-3) / 2 equals nine diagonals. A regular hexagon shape has a radius that equals the side length.

    • RE: What is PPV and NPV?

      For any given test (i.e. sensitivity and specificity remain the same) as prevalence decreases, the PPV decreases because there will be more false positives for every true positive.

      Negative predictive value (NPV)

      Prevalence PPV NPV 1% 8% >99% 10% 50% 99% 20% 69% 97% 50% 90% 90%
      Additionally, is PPV the same as sensitivity? Sensitivity is the “true positive rate,” equivalent to a/a c. Specificity is the “true negative rate,” equivalent to d/b d. PPV is the proportion of people with a positive test result who actually have the disease (a/a b); NPV is the proportion of those with a negative result who do not have the disease (d/c d).

      Similarly one may ask, how do you calculate PPV?

      To calculate the positive predictive value (PPV), divide TP by (TP FP). In the case above, that would be 95/(95 90)= 51.4%. The positive predictive value tells us how likely someone is to have the characteristic if the test is positive.

      Why does prevalence affect PPV and NPV?

      Prevalence thus impacts the positive predictive value (PPV) and negative predictive value (NPV) of tests. As the prevalence increases, the PPV also increases but the NPV decreases. Similarly, as the prevalence decreases the PPV decreases while the NPV increases.

    • RE: How many gallons is a 16 foot by 48 inch pool?

      If you are lucky enough to have an Above Ground Pool, or some Inground Pools where the entire bottom is one Depth, it is very easy to figure out the Average Depth. It is just the Depth of the water.

      How Many Gallons Of Water Are In My Swimming Pool?

      SIZE GALLONS OF WATER 12 Round 3,398 15 Round 5,310 18 Round 7,646 21 Round 10,407
      Subsequently, question is, how many gallons is a 12x30 pool? The colorful Intex Pool Set includes a 110-120V filter pump with a 530 gallon-per-hour flow rate and a water capacity at 90 percent of 1,718 gallons. An easy-to-understand setup and maintenance DVD is included with the Intex 12 x 30 Pool Set to help get you started.

      Similarly, it is asked, how many gallons is my pool calculator?

      Length x width x depth x 7.5 = volume (in gallons) Length times width gives the surface area of the pool. Multiplying that by the depth gives the volume in cubic feet. Since there are 7.5 gallons in each cubic foot, multiply the cubic feet of the pool by 7.5 to arrive at the volume of the pool, expressed in gallons.

      How many gallons is a 16x32 pool?

    • How do you make bluish GREY?

      Essentially you're just mixing blue gray. You can change the value by altering the value of the gray, i.e. you'll get a dark blue gray with less white. You can shift the hue by tinting the gray, i.e. adding a bit of purple will get you a slightly lavender blue gray. Another way is by creating a blue-hued neutral gray.

    • RE: Can you freeze venison twice?

      Although there may be a noticeable loss of flavor and quality due to lost moisture during thawing, deer meat can generally be refrozen once thawed, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Any foods left at room temperature for more than 2 hours after thawing should not be frozen, however.

      Secondly, how many times can you thaw and refreeze meat? this isnt a safety issue were discussing. According to the USDA, refreezing previously-thawed meat is safe to do, as long as the meat was thawed in the fridge and not out on the counter at room temperature, or worse, in a microwave.

      In this regard, can you freeze meat twice?

      Once food is thawed in the refrigerator, it is safe to refreeze it without cooking, although there may be a loss of quality due to the moisture lost through thawing. After cooking raw foods which were previously frozen, it is safe to freeze the cooked foods. Freeze leftovers within 3-4 days.

      Can you grind frozen meat and refreeze?

      Once ground meat starts thawing, it should be used as quickly as possible. However, if you have unground meat (that is not thawed) and grind it, you should be able to re-freeze it. Any time you start thawing meat, bacteria starts growing in a geometric progression.

    • RE: What happens if the discriminant is 0?

      If the discriminant of a quadratic function is less than zero, that function has no real roots, and the parabola it represents does not intersect the x-axis.

      Secondly, when discriminant is zero then roots are? When a, b, and c are real numbers, a ≠ 0 and the discriminant is zero, then the roots α and β of the quadratic equation ax2 bx c = 0 are real and equal.

      Keeping this in consideration, how many solutions are there if the discriminant is zero?

      one solution

      How do you prove a quadratic has no real roots?

      If the discriminant is greater than zero, this means that the quadratic equation has two real, distinct (different) roots. x2 - 5x 2. If the discriminant is greater than zero, this means that the quadratic equation has no real roots. Therefore, there are no real roots to the quadratic equation 3x2 2x 1.

    • RE: Why are science safety rules important?

      Safety rules are in place to protect the people of our community. They protect all of us. Many safety regulations were implemented because of a condition that led to someone getting seriously injured or killed. The truth is people paid the price for many of our safety rules with their lives, limbs, or blood.

      Likewise, what is the most important safety rule in science? Answer and Explanation: The most important lab safety rule is to know the location of and how to use safety equipment, such as a fire extinguisher.

      In this regard, why is it important to follow science safety rules?

      Lab safety is the rules that are used in every lab to keep you safe. Lab safety is important because it keeps people from getting severely injured. Proper lab rules are important because they keep people from getting hurt. If you do not follow the lab safety rules then you could get hurt.

      What are lab safety rules?

      Top 10 Lab Safety Rules

      • Rule #1 - WALK.
      • Rule #2 - PROPER LAB ATTIRE.
      • Rule #3 - HANDLING CHEMICALS.
