Remove any other obstructions. You can move closer in for heavily stained spots but don't keep high pressure on any spot for too long. Move the sprayer in a slow, sweeping pattern. If stains remain proceed to the next step. Pour a solution of one part household bleach to two parts water into a bucket. There is no need to stir. Use a scrub brush to clean the remaining stains with the solution. Be careful not to get bleach solution on your plants. Repeat the power washing on the stained areas you scrubbed.

Summary: Trim and tie back plants. Cover tender plants with a tarp or invert buckets over them. Set the power washer on a lower pressure setting such as 1500 to 2000 psi. Stand about 2 feet (0.6m) away from the fence and hose it down. Let the fence dry if the mildew and algae disappear from the fence. Scrub the stained areas on the fence if some stains remain after power washing. Check the fence and sand any rough areas. Sink any protruding nails or screws and repair any damaged wood. Apply wood preservative, stain or paint to the fence after it dries prevent future algae and mildew growth.

A quadratic equation is an equation that takes the form ax2+bx+c=0{\displaystyle ax^{2}+bx+c=0}. A quadratic equation has two solutions, which means a line written in this form is a parabola and will have two x-intercepts. For example, the equation x2+3x10=0{\displaystyle x^{2}+3x-10=0} is a quadratic equation, so this line will have two x-intercepts. The formula is x=bb24ac2a{\displaystyle x={
rac {-b\pm {\sqrt {b^{2}-4ac}}}{2a}}}, where a{\displaystyle a} equals the coefficient of the second-degree term (x2{\displaystyle x^{2}}), b{\displaystyle b} equals the coefficient of the first-degree term (x{\displaystyle x}), and c{\displaystyle c} equals the constant. Make sure you substitute the correct values for each variable from the equation of the line. For example, if the equation of your line is x2+3x10=0{\displaystyle x^{2}+3x-10=0}, your quadratic formula will look like this: x=3324(1)(10)2(1){\displaystyle x={
rac {-3\pm {\sqrt {3^{2}-4(1)(-10)}}}{2(1)}}}. To do this, first complete all of the multiplication. Make sure you pay close attention to all positive and negative signs. For example:x=3324(10)2(1){\displaystyle x={
rac {-3\pm {\sqrt {3^{2}-4(-10)}}}{2(1)}}}x=332+402{\displaystyle x={
rac {-3\pm {\sqrt {3^{2}+40}}}{2}}} Square the b{\displaystyle b} term. Then, add this number to the other number under the square root sign. For example:x=332+402{\displaystyle x={
rac {-3\pm {\sqrt {3^{2}+40}}}{2}}}x=39+402{\displaystyle x={
rac {-3\pm {\sqrt {9+40}}}{2}}}x=3492{\displaystyle x={
rac {-3\pm {\sqrt {49}}}{2}}} Since the quadratic formula has a {\displaystyle \pm }, you will solve once by adding, and once by subtracting. Solving by adding will give you your first x{\displaystyle x} value. For example:x=3+492{\displaystyle x={
rac {-3+{\sqrt {49}}}{2}}}x=3+72{\displaystyle x={
rac {-3+7}{2}}}x=42{\displaystyle x={
rac {4}{2}}}x=2{\displaystyle x=2} This will give you the second value for x{\displaystyle x}. First calculate the square root, then find the difference in the numerator. Finally, divide by 2. For example:x=3492{\displaystyle x={
rac {-3-{\sqrt {49}}}{2}}}x=372{\displaystyle x={
rac {-3-7}{2}}}x=102{\displaystyle x={
rac {-10}{2}}}x=5{\displaystyle x=-5} Remember that an ordered pair gives the x-coordinate first, then the y-coordinate (x,y){\displaystyle (x,y)}. The x{\displaystyle x} values will be the values you calculated using the quadratic formula. The y{\displaystyle y} value will be 0, since at the x-intercept, y{\displaystyle y} always equals 0. For example, for the line x2+3x10=0{\displaystyle x^{2}+3x-10=0}, the x-intercepts are at points (2,0){\displaystyle (2,0)} and (5,0){\displaystyle (-5,0)}.

Summary: Determine that the equation of the line is a quadratic equation. Set up the quadratic formula. Plug all of the values into the quadratic formula. Simplify the equation. Calculate the exponent. Solve for the addition formula. Solve for the subtraction formula. Find the ordered pairs for the x-intercept.

Check the tags for ironing instructions. If the tags don't tell you which setting to put your iron, then look to see if they indicate what material the fabric is made of. Many irons order their settings by the type of material: e.g. wool, cotton, polyester. Use an ironing board, if possible. If you don't have access to an ironing board, then use a flat, sturdy surface like a table or a counter. The ironing board is designed to absorb heat and moisture without taking damage. Make sure that you don't iron on a highly flammable surface. Arrange the item of clothing so that it lies perfectly flat on the board. Make sure that there are no wrinkles! If you iron over a wrinkle, then you will press a creased line into the fabric.

Summary: Make sure that the garment is meant to be ironed. Set up the ironing area. Lay out the garment.

This will remove any tangles or knots from the hair before misting and styling them. When picking out a brush match it to the doll's hair. For example, if your doll has straight hair use the normal brush. But if it has wavy hair use the pick, both sold in-store and online at American Girl. Curly doll hair should be handled with extreme care. Separate tangles carefully with the pick so it doesn't get damaged. This will calm the stray pieces and keep it down. Be sure to brush the hair after a few mists and not drench them. Bottles made for especially their hair are sold again at American Girl. To reduce tangles, you can mix a small amount of conditioner into the water. Don't make it thick at all or it might clog your bottle. With these items you can style the doll's hair. These styles can range from simple ponytails to complicated pullback flipped braids. Again, these styles vary from what hair your doll comes with. To make buns on a doll with textured, curly hair, divide in half and pull each half through a hairband, but only part of the way. This will loop the hair in the back and make two buns.
Summary: Lightly brush out the doll's hair. Get a spray bottle and lightly mist the hair. Collect items such as hair ties and hair clips to keep for the doll.
