Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Find out his interests. Follow him on social media. Focus on interests you have in common. Approach him in a group setting. Maintain open body language around him.

Answer: Ask mutual friends about the boy’s hobbies or favorite past times. Snoop on his social media to find out his favorite music, movies, and television shows. Pay attention to any sports he plays at school or when he is around friends. For example, you may ask his mutual friends, “What is his favorite thing to do outside of school?” or “Can you tell me what his favorite television show is?” Find him on social media platforms like Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter, and Facebook. Follow him so you can get to know him better through social media. If he follows you back, this can help to build your friendship. You can also use social media to learn more about his interests as well as a direct line of communication. This may help you feel more comfortable with talking to him and help your friendship blossom. People are generally attracted to others with similar backgrounds and it will be easier for him to connect with you if he sees these similarities. Think about interests you have in common with the boy, such as a favorite television show or sport. Then, use these shared interests as icebreakers for your first conversations.  For example, you may find out that you both like action movies. Or you may discover that you share a common interest in video games. Do not pretend to like things the boy likes just to become friends with him. You will likely find at least one thing you have in common with him so you do not have to fake it. If you have not had a lot of interaction with him, you may feel more comfortable getting to know him within a group. If you have mutual friends, ask them to help facilitate an introduction when you’re all together. If you do not have mutual friends, you could consider becoming involved in a group or club that he attends. This will not only aid in increasing your interaction with him, but will also create an instant common ground that may feel more natural. When you are around the boy, try to project an open, friendly demeanor. Avoid aggressive body language such as clenching your fists and crossing your arms. Instead, maintain open body language by keeping your arms relaxed at your sides and smiling or nodding at him. When you chat with the boy, you should also maintain eye contact with him to show him you are engaged in what he has to say.


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Use a blender. Choose your flavor of whey protein. Mix in fruits or other ingredients. Add ice cubes. Add flavor-enhancing ingredients.

Answer: Combining the ingredients in a blender is the most convenient way to make a shake. Follow the instructions on the whey protein container to measure out the proper amount of whey protein powder and blend with the recommended portion of liquid and any other ingredients until smooth. If you do not have a blender, you can use an electric mixer, blender bottle, or use a whisk or fork to mix the ingredients in a glass or bowl. You can buy whey protein in a variety of flavors, which will affect the taste of your smoothie. Flavors include vanilla, strawberry, blueberry, banana, chocolate, and more. Whey protein shakes can be made with fruits and other ingredients to change the flavor and nutritional content. Many recipes can be found in books and online for various preparations of whey protein shakes. To make it easier to blend or mix fruits into whey protein shakes, add liquids first. Depending on your preference, add between one to two cups of one or more of the following:  Fruit juice Banana Peaches Pears Mango Watery fruits, including oranges, pineapple and watermelon Milk, soy milk, almond milk, coconut milk or other low-fat milks Blended ice cubes will thicken and cool your whey protein shake, giving it the consistency of a smoothie or shake. Alternatively, you can freeze bananas, raspberries and other fruits (or buy them frozen) and add them to the drink. You can even make ice cubes out of milk and use these instead. Whey protein shakes may benefit from the addition of ingredients that improve the flavor. Add these ingredients to your liking and you will improve your shake's flavor. Some ingredients to consider adding include:  Honey Vanilla, nutmeg, cinnamon Yogurt Dried fruit, including raisins, apricots and dates Chocolate, vanilla, strawberry or other milkshake powders


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Identify your assets. Identify your liabilities. Determine your zakat net worth.

Answer: Start calculating your assets, or what you own. This is the first step is figuring out how much zakat you'll pay. You exclude the assets you use for everyday life. For example, your primary residence, car, clothes and business equipment are not used in your zakat asset calculations. It's based on what's left after you take care of you and your family's living expenses.   Some examples of zakat-eligible assets include stocks, savings, investment properties, cash, business income or precious metals such as gold. Determine how much your zakat-eligible assets are worth for the year. Debt from credit cards, college or other loans subtracts from your personal net worth. These outstanding debts are deducted from your total zakat-eligible assets.  If you obtained a personal loan of any type (car, home, cash), then look at how much you pay per month to your creditors, not the entire outstanding debt. Add up how much you owe each month to your creditors. Multiple this amount by 12 to calculate your annual liability amount. Subtract your liabilities from your zakat-eligible assets. For example, your assets for the year total $6,000 and your liabilities total $2,000. Your zakat net worth or zakat pool of money is $4,000 ($6,000 - $2,000 = $4,000).


Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Set up two line graphs Label each graph. Reset the lock, then set it to zero. Rotate slowly counterclockwise and listen. When you hear two clicks close together, note the position of the dial at each click. Graph these points. Reset the lock and set it 3 numbers left of zero. Continue recording the location of the two clicks. Keep testing until your line graphs are done. Look for points on your graphs where the two y-values converge. Write down the x-values at these locations.

Answer:
. You'll need to record a lot of information in order to crack a safe. Not only are line graphs an easy way to do so, the shape of the graph will aid you in finding the data you'll need. Each graph's x-axis should cover a span from 0 to the highest number on the dial face, spaced out enough to clearly graph points 3 numbers apart or closer. The y-axis only needs to cover a span of about 5 numbers, but you can leave it blank for now.  Label one graph's x-axis "starting position" and its y-axis "left contact point". Label the second graph's x-axis "starting position" and its y-axis "right contact point". Spin the dial several rotations clockwise to disengage the wheels, then set it at the zero position. You're trying to find the contact areas where the drive cam connects to a wheel (see Learn How a Combination Lock Functions). Make sure to note the exact number you heard each click. You'll need two separate points, usually within a few numbers of each other. On your "left contact point" graph, make a point at x=0 (the number the dial began on). The y-value is the number on the dial where you heard the first click.  Similarly, on your "right contact point" graph, mark a point at x=0 and a y value where you heard the second click. You can now label your y-axes. Leave enough room to graph a spread of 5 numbers on either side of the y-value you just recorded. Spin the dial clockwise a few times and set it 3 numbers further clockwise of zero. This new number is the next x-value you'll record. Find the new y-values of the first and second clicks when you start at this location. They should be near where you heard them last time. When you've recorded the second location, reset the lock again and set it an additional 3 numbers counterclockwise. Once you've mapped the entire dial (in increments of 3) and are back at the zero position, you can stop testing. At certain x-axis points the difference between the left and right contact point values (y axis) will be smaller.  This is easier to see if you lay the two graphs one above the other and literally find the points where the two graphs are closest together. Each of these points corresponds with a correct number in the combination. You should know how many numbers there are in the combination, either because you've used this safe previously or because you followed the instructions for Find the Combination Length. If the quantity of converging points on the graph doesn't match the quantity of numbers in the combination, make a new graph and see which points are consistently narrow. If the y-values on the two charts are closest together when x=3, 42, and 66, write down these numbers.  If you successfully followed these steps, these numbers should be the ones used in the combination, or at least close enough to work. Note that we do not know which sequence of these numbers is the correct one. Read on for additional testing and tips.
