Q: Once again, take the cushions off the couch. Also, tape off any areas you don't want to get spray paint on, using painter's tape. Tape those areas off thoroughly, as spray paint has a tendency to drift. Glue together any major cracks or use a patch. Sand the area down before painting. Create thin layers of spray paint on the paintable areas. Thin layers are very important when it comes to leather. Hold the spray paint well above the area, moving it around slowly to create an even, light layer. Start in an inconspicuous area to test what it looks like. Spray paint can become tacky and peel if you don't let it dry between layers. Make sure the painted area is completely dry before you add the next layer. You may need as many as twenty layers when painting a couch with spray paint. Once the couch has an appearance you like, stop adding layers. Let it dry completely. Leave it to cure for about at least two days, so you know it's completely dry and cured. Use a soft cloth to rub down the painted area so that you remove any paint that didn't get absorbed.
A: Prepare the couch. Apply the paint. Let it dry between coats. Wipe it off.

Q: You can use your hand, but an actual seed spreader is best, because it gives you more even coverage. You should spread the seeds so that you have approximately one seed per 1 square inch (2.5 square centimeters) of space. The package of seeds should tell you how many pounds of seed you should use per 1,000 square feet of planting area, to give you a better idea of how much seed you need for large areas.
A: Spread your seeds.

Q: Pick a good, clear picture to serve as a visual introduction to your profile. Headshots are good choice, especially if you're a public figure or want to be more immediately recognizable. Like your bio, your profile picture should represent you and clue your followers in to type of content you tend to post. Displaying a photo lets other users know that there's an actual person on the other end of the account. Well-known companies can use a logo as their profile picture. This will be the first thing people will see when they open your profile. Go with the name you most often respond to, and use your first and last. You can also tack on any other defining titles or nicknames that you think will help other users have an easier time finding you. Many Instagram users make the mistake of using a name other than their real one, or omitting a name altogether. This can make it harder for other users to search for you, and may even make your account look less legitimate. A title or nickname can help distinguish you from other users with the same name. For example, "Maria Roberts *Leadership Consultant*" or "Alex 'Hambone' DuPont" leaves no doubt as to which one you are. Instagram only gives you 150 characters to get your point across. Whatever you think up should therefore be short and sweet. Make room for important descriptive details, contact info and related links. Otherwise, let your profile speak for itself. Save longer rants and descriptions for the captions on your individual posts. Long, rambling bios and captions tend to get passed over more often than short, punchy ones. Whether words are not your strong suit or you just want to keep things a little more playful, emojis can lend a little flair to an otherwise plain bio. Adding a simple smiley face or other symbol can break up the monotony of plain text with some much-needed color and character. It will also draw more eyes to your page, making your other content more likely to be seen. As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words. A single symbol can tell users what they need to know about your interests and pursuits, freeing that space up for other purposes. Emojis are best used sparingly to highlight certain ideas. Too many of them can quickly become distracting.
A: Upload a photo of yourself. Include your name. Be concise. Use emojis.

Q: Deductive reasoning is often used to make inferences in science and math, as you must use formal logic to support a conclusion or a solution. You can use deductive reasoning in a science class or a math class to test an existing theory or hypothesis. In science, you can then support your conclusions with experimental data. In math, you can support your proof with supporting proofs or equations. Deductive reasoning is often represented as the general (X) and the specific (Y). There are three steps to forming a deductive argument. First: You will note that every X (general) has the characteristic Y (specific). Second: You will note that the thing you are trying to prove is X (the general). Third: You can deduce the thing you are trying to prove has the characteristic Y (the specific). For example, you may start with the general idea: Every rose has thorns. You may then note: The thing in my hand is a rose. You can then make a deductive argument: Therefore, this thing I am holding can probably prick me. From this deductive argument, you can do further experiments to find cases where your argument may not be true. For example, you may try to find roses that do not contain thorns or that can be manipulated to not grow thorns. You may also investigate why roses have thorns and what purpose thorns serve on roses. You can use deductive reasoning as part of your scientific method in science class. Forming a deductive argument is an important step in a scientific study, as it allows you to make assumptions about your hypothesis and then test those assumptions through experiments. You can then use the data from the experiments to confirm or dispute your hypothesis. Start by observing a phenomenon that forms a problem or question. For example, you may observe in your chemistry class that noble gases are stable. You may then make a hypothesis by using deductive reasoning. Noble gases are stable. Neon is a noble gas. Therefore, you can deduce that neon is stable. You can then design an experiment that supports or refutes your hypothesis. This may be an experiment where you test and observe neon's reaction to certain environments, particularly environments where it is clear when a gas is stable or unstable. You will then collect the data from the experiment and analyze the data. The data should be given a rigorous analysis to ensure your conclusion is well supported. Finally, you will make a conclusion using the data. You will need to determine if the experiment refutes or supports your hypothesis, or your deductive argument. If it confirms your hypothesis, you can confirm your deductive argument: Noble gases are stable. Neon is a noble gas. Therefore, neon is stable. In mathematics, deductive reasoning can be used to formulate the answer to a mathematical problem. The more complex the mathematical problem is, the more complex your deductive argument (or proof) will need to be. In the most basic form, a deductive argument in mathematics could be represented by: If A=B and B=C, then A=C. This means that you make a general argument: A=B. You then note a more specific argument: B=C. You can then deduce the following argument or proof: A=C.
A:
Understand deductive reasoning in relation to science and mathematics. Apply deductive reasoning to a scientific problem. Solve a math problem with a deductive argument.
