This video tutorial shows you how to paint an interesting design on your nails using pink, white, and blue polish. Begin with a base color. Pink polish is used here. Next do a side swipe using blue. This swipe starts about halfway down the nail and comes up to the top of the nail. Then add a little blue shimmer to the blue polish. Next use white polish with a thin brush to outline the blue. This line can be a little thicker. Then add a shimmery dark blue line next to the white line. Now place...
First of all you need a single sheet of paper 12 by 12 inches to make a mini book with four pages and measures 6 by 3 inches. You also need a tool for making creases and a knife to cut the paper. Start by folding the paper in half and then crease the middle line. You must always try to make the crease line as crisp and sharp as possible. Now open it out and then again fold it in the middle in the other side. After this step you have to place the paper with the length facing towards you. Now f...

Using a rubber worm with a lead cast you must first understand how it fells in the water. The lead cast will allow the bait to travel to the bottom. When the lure is at the bottom you will know because the line goes slack. Next is to lift the line up and let it rest on the bottom again. Do this twenty-five times to really get the feel of the weight and lure. When casting for real the practice will come in helpful because the Bass will look at the lure on the bottom and strike at it when it is...

In this video the instructor teaches how to add and subtract integers. When adding or subtracting two numbers there can be four kind of situations depending on the signs between the numbers. When you are adding two numbers which are both positive then you move forward on the number line adding the two numbers together to give the result. Similarly when adding two negative numbers together then you move left side of the number line. Go to the left by the value of first number and go further le...
User DayTeacher helps you understand integers and the number line. When numbers were conceived, man had the basic concept of small numbers. The first things you learn in a language are numbers. The weather might have had an impact on numbers, as temperatures dropped below 0. When talking about years Before Christ (BC), you could say 1000 B.C. is actually -1000. Being in debt means negative money. Two days ago is -2 days from the time we are talking about. Integers are positive whole numbers, ...
This silent video demonstrates visually how to draw a Homer Simpson character beginning with a series of simplistic shapes and lines. The artist begins by drawing two very basic circles for the eyes, then adds a curving line beneath to create the nose. The artist continues building on the image using the basic line and shape technique to create the full face image of the infamous cartoon character, and then, as a finishing touch, adds the collar of Homer Simpson's work shirt. This video provi...
This video shows how to find the formula of a piecewise function when given a graph. The first step is to write a definition for the graph, which is done by identifying the different domains shown in the graph. The second step is writing formulas for each domain specified by the lines in the graph. The point-slope formula is used to identify the slope and y-intercept for the leftmost domain, which has a sloped line. A point and horizontal line make for simpler equations in the other pieces of...
In this video, one teacher talked in detail about how to solve absolute value functions and how to translate different absolute value functions from one point in the matrix to another one horizontally and vertically. If the function is y=A|x-h|+k, generally, the diagram is symmetric based on the line of X and can be moved vertically based on k. The teacher gave several examples to explain how to illustrate the absolute value function. He started with a simple one: y=|x-h|, then continued with...
This is an interesting video presentation about "Flower Nail Art Tutorial". The steps are as follows, the first step is Apply a thick coat of clear polish on your nail and then apply 5 red dots in circle in the fourth finger and a white dot in the middle and then draw a line from the center through the red dots. After drawing each line, clean your brush and now draw lines from between the dots to the center and then draw golden strips between petals and draw a black dot in the middle and draw...
In this video the instructor shows how to derive a general equation for a line in Point-Slope form. The slope of an equation is the ratio of difference of y coordinates to the difference of x coordinates. In other words, slope is the change of y up on change of x. So you have the basic slope equation m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1). When you have fractions you can simplify them by multiplying the denominator to the numerator on both sides. So multiply the equation by (x2-x1) on both sides. This gives...
This video tutorial will show you to draw the cartoon character Lucario. To begin, draw your guidelines by using a 30% black pencil. Since he has a snout, you want to put two ovals for the head instead of one. Then make the chest with two curved lines and make simple lines for the legs, arms and tail. Use a black pencil to add in details and paint bucket for shadows.
This video shows the detailed procedure to line a cake tin. Firstly, the demonstrator cuts off a square paper just smaller than the base of the tin. Then she measures off a length of paper for covering the sides. She folds it in half lengthwise twice. After careful folding and cutting off small triangular portions at the folds, she then skillfully places it to cover the sides completely. The last step in the procedure is to place the square paper for the base. She thus lines the cake tin full...
This video shows us how to draw a linear equation using the slope and intercept technique. First, the narrator explains how to simplify the equation in order to get the slope and intercept out. He then shows how the coefficient of x equals the slope and the constant term tells us the y position of the intercept point. The technique for drawing the final line is plotting the intercept at the right height on the y axis, then running for some distance along the x axis and rising some amount. Thi...
The video shows us how to draw Riku from Kingdom Hearts. Firstly draw a rough circle and then draw a center line to it. Then draw the rest of the body parts along with the sword aligned to it along the way down. Draw all this using a lighter shades and once you are done creating the body line roughly, use the darker shades to highlight that and also start drawing the other important parts like parts of the mouth, costume, limbs and the shoes. Then erase the parts which were in lighter shades ...

Ever wonder how helicopters work? Gather a piece of paper, a ruler and a pair of scissors. Take the ruler and draw 3 lines of 10cms on a sheet of paper. Then place the ruler in the middle and draw 2 lines of 14cms in length. Then cut the lines with the scissors and fold the slides in the opposite direction. Get one paper clip and put it on the tail end of the helicopter. The flight of the helicopter depends upon the size of the wings. It will help you to learn the dynamics of a helicopter.

To do this, there are many ways to approach this problem. One way is to look at the change in Y over the change in X by looking at the points on the graph. Another way is to use the equation Y2-Y1 over the equation X2-X1. In other equations where you are given a graph, you may be asked if the slope is positive, negative, or zero. To determine this, look at the line in the context of moving from left to right along the graph. If the line graphed is going down as you move from left to right, th...
This video shows the viewer how to create a funky neon nail look. This is done by first applying a clear base coat to each nail. After this the nails were completely covered in a matt black finish. This was allowed to dry. Then 2 diagonal lines were made going from the top left corner to the left hand side of the middle. These lines were done in a bright pink color. The 2 other lines were made in parallel to these starting in the bottom right hand corner. They were done in the same way so tha...
In this tutorial the instructor shows how to find the vertices of a polygon of constraints. In any optimization problem after defining your polygon you need to find its vertices. First you will have a set of equations which represents the constraints in your problem. Now you have to find the coordinates of the vertex of it by solving the optimization problem. To do that you have to start with a point and check the lines that are passing through it. Now take those lines and solve them for the ...
