1. If I were to drive to the ASU football game that is furthest away from Boone, how many miles would I drive one way? 655.96 miles will be a one way trip. I went to the football website on ASU to find out where their games would be played this year and found the furthest game is in Ann Harbor, Michigan. I then went to map quest to search how long it would take to drive from Boone, NC to Ann Harbor, Michigan. In the end I had to do two searches.
2. How many registered home schools are in Watauga County? As of the 2005-2006 school year on record there were 240 registered home schools in Watauga County. I searched different state school websites on Google, and they gave me the Division of Non-Public Education Division website. On this web-site they have a home school section which shows the break-down in each country of home schools they have registered.
3. How many grants and how much ($$) current grant funding does the Department of Computer Science at Appalachian have from the National Science Foundation (nsf.gov)? Appalachian State University has three active grants from this foundation; all three of the grants amount to $745,433.00. I went to the National Science Foundation Website (nsf.gov) and searched their active awards database. I only used this website doing a single search.
4. How many days does it take for a honeybee colony to produce a queen bee? It takes 16 days when you include the egg hatching and then the larvae process going into the cocoon then the actual queen adult bee coming out. I went the Wikipedia website (wikipedia.org) and researched queen bees and it had a chart break down on thaw website of the whole process and then I just added those numbers up.
5. What is the current temperature in your home town? It is currently 74 degrees back home. I went to weather.com, which is the weather channel website, I typed in my hometown “Winston-Salem, NC” and then it gave me the results. I only had to use a single page to find this answer.
