Problem: Article: Adhesives are most common with frameless mirrors, mostly because there is nothing else to put a bracket or screw into. If your mirror has a frame, you're probably better off using hangers or other tools. Frameless mirrors are most commonly used in bathrooms. Make sure you get adhesives specially made for hanging mirrors. It will need to stick to both the mirror glass and your wall. Plus, because frameless mirrors are normally in placed in bathrooms, your glue will also need to withstand the more humid environment. A ruler or tape measure should do. This will be important when you think about where the mirror needs to go. It should lay flat against the wall, so there needs to be plenty of space. There cannot be anything between your mirror and the wall if you are using adhesives. Use the measurements you got before and trace where you think the mirror would look best to make sure it will fit there. You can lightly mark the wall in pencil to see where it will go. You can also use those pencil marks and a level to make sure your mirror will be straight. Once your glue dries, you won't be able to readjust the mirror without damaging your walls (and possibly the mirror), so your measurements need to be exact. You only get one shot at this. Follow the instructions on your glue to make sure you use the proper amount, and put it in the right places on either the back of the mirror or the wall. You should only need to apply it to one surface, not both, but check the instructions to be sure. Hold in place according to the instructions on the adhesive so that it dries. It will probably be quickly, but you don't want to let go until the glue is set. Depending on the size of your mirror, you may want another person to help. Now that it is in place, polish or wipe down the mirror so your surface is clean and reflective. Enjoy its new place on your wall.
Summary: Get a frameless mirror. Purchase the glue. Measure your mirror. Mark the wall where you want your mirror to go. Apply adhesive. Push the mirror on to the wall. Clean off your mirror.

Problem: Article: Take the example (x+4)(x+1)(x+3). We need to multiply the binomials one at a time, so multiply the any two by either FOIL or distribution of terms. Multiplying the first two, (x+4) and (x+1) with FOIL would look like this:   First: x*x = x2   Outer: 1*x = x  Inner: 4*x = 4x  Last: 1*4 = 4  Combine terms: x2 + x + 4x + 4 (x+4)(x+1) = x2 + 5x +4 Now that part of the equation has be multiplied you can handle the leftover binomial. In the example, (x+4)(x+1)(x+3), the leftover term was (x+3). Put it back along with the new equation, giving you: (x+3)(x2 + 5x + 4). This is distribution of terms. So, for the equation (x+3)(x2 + 5x + 4), you need to multiply the first x by the three parts of the second parenthesis, "x2," "5x," and "4."  (x * x2) + (x * 5x) + (x * 4) = x3 + 5x2 + 4x  Write this answer down and save it for later. Take the equation, (x+3)(x2 + 5x + 4). Now, multiply the second part of the binomial by all three parts in the other parentheses, "x2," "5x," and "4."  (3 * x2) + (3 * 5x) + (3 * 4) = 3x2 + 15x + 12  Write this answer down next to the first answer. You need to combine the answers from the previous two steps, as they make up the two parts of your final answer. x3 + 5x2 + 4x + 3x2 + 15x + 12 Any "like" terms, terms that share the same variable and power (like 5x2 and 3x2), can be added together to make your answer simpler.  5x2 and 3x2 become 8x2  4x and 15x become 19x (x+4)(x+1)(x+3) = x3 + 8x2 + 19x + 12 Since you can use distribution of terms to multiply equations of any length, you now have the tools needed to solve larger problems, like (x+1)(x+2)(x+3). Multiply any two binomials together using either distribution of terms or FOIL, then use the distribution of terms to multiply the final binomial to the first two. In the following example, we FOIL (x+1)(x+2), then distribute the terms with (x+3) to get the final answer:  (x+1)(x+2)(x+3) = (x+1)(x+2) * (x+3) (x+1)(x+2) = x2 + 3x + 2 (x+1)(x+2)(x+3) = (x2 + 3: + 2) * (x+3) (x2 + 3x + 2) * (x+3) = x3 + 3x2 + 2x + 3x2 + 9x + 6  Simplify to final answer: x3 + 6x2 + 11x + 6
Summary: Multiply the first two binomials, temporarily ignoring the third. Combine the leftover binomial with your new equation. Multiply the first number in the binomial by all three numbers in the other parenthesis. Multiply the second number in the binomial by all three numbers in the other parenthesis. Add together the two answers from multiplication. Simplify the equation to get your final answer. Always use distribution to tackle larger multiplication problems.

Problem: Article: A plunger with a simple rubber cup attached to a wooden handle is the best tool for the job. If you have a flange plunger with an extra ring of rubber around the bottom, fold the extra ring into the cup. The plunger will bring up whatever is clogging the drain. Don't use a plunger if you've poured toxic chemicals like bleach down the drain, as it will bring these up, too. They can splash and cause burns. If you have an overflow drain in your tub, this can break the suction created with a plunger. Make sure it is completely closed off by covering it with a wet towel. The outside of the drain may be wet from a recent shower. If it is not evenly wet, pour some water into the tub. Or, use a small amount of petroleum jelly around the edge of the cup of the plunger to get a better seal. If there is a lot of standing water in your tub, remove some of it with a bucket before you start to plunge. This will keep it from splashing you.  The cup will seal when you start to pump. Move the handle up and down a few times to force air out. Then push vigorously for about 20 seconds. Don't push so hard that you break the seal. If the plunging worked, it will have brought up whatever was clogging your drain. Remove the clog with your hands or use a wire snake if you can't reach it. Use a flashlight to get a good look. To check that everything has been cleared out, turn on the water and watch to see if it drains. If the water doesn't drain, try using a hand snake or baking soda and vinegar solution.
Summary:
Use a cup plunger for shower drains if standing water won't drain. Block the overflow drain with a wet towel. Moisten the outside of the drain with water or petroleum jelly if it is dry. Press the plunger around the drain to cover it completely. Start to pump the handle of the plunger gently, and then with more force. Lift up the plunger and remove any material you can reach.
