You took a home pregnancy test it came out negative however the negative line is still there and you took it 2 hours ago The directions said that If negative it shouldnt be able to be read after 10 mi?

On a test, there are usually two lines. The one line is what you call the negative line and shows up if you have a negative or a positive result. A test is positive only if two lines show up. The negative line usually stays. The ten minute reference means that the test results after ten minutes will not be reliable. If the result is negative in the first minutes, then that is your proper result.


Why do some people still live and grow crops on the slopes of the volcano in spite of the risk?

Some people choose to live and cultivate crops on the slopes of a volcano due to factors such as fertile soil, access to natural resources, cultural ties to the land, and limited options for relocation. Additionally, volcanic eruptions can be infrequent, leading some to perceive the risk as manageable compared to the benefits of living in a particular location.


Is the sum and difference of two perpendicular vectors have same lengyhs and also perpendicular to each other?

Yes, the sum of two perpendicular vectors has the same length as the original vectors, and they are also perpendicular to each other. However, the difference of two perpendicular vectors may not have the same length as the original vectors, but they will still be perpendicular to each other.


Describe the seasons you would have if the earth axis were perpendicular to the plane of its orbit?

If the Earth's axis were perpendicular to the plane of its orbit, there would be no seasons since the tilt of the Earth's axis is what currently causes the variation in seasons. With a perpendicular axis, the amount of sunlight received by each hemisphere would be constant throughout the year, resulting in a stable and consistent climate across all regions.


When you get the reciprocal of and negative number will it still be negative?

Yes.


What lines are parallel?

Parallel lines are lines which share the same gradient. In Euclidean geometry (the geometry used in standard mathematics and day-to-day physics), parallel lines will never meet at a point, but will share every point along their (infinite) lengths if 1 point is observed to coincide with both. The parallel postulate, which is a geometric axiom of Euclid's geometry, defines these properties. However, by moving into elliptical and hyperbolic geometries, parallel lines can be allow to intersect at points (where parallel lines are defined as 2 lines having the same gradient), whilst still retaining logically consistent geometrical definitions. Parallel lines are the opposite of perpendicular lines which meet at right angles.

How many perpendicular faces does a pentagonal prism have?

A pentagonal prism has only 7 faces. Each of the five lateral faces is perpendicular to the two bases: that makes 10 pairs of mutually perpendicular faces. In general, the lateral faces are not perpendicular, but four of them may be perpendicular to one or more of its neighbors - at most 4 more pairs. Still not 25!
