hang sentences

Some mistakes hang over in these paragraphs.

I have hung up visiting job sites as I now don't need to search for a job at all.

My brother is telling something and my sister is telling something about the incident but overall their both stories do not hang together.

Please do not hang on these books as for the exam questions maybe asked from some other books.

If we five hang together, we can complete that project within a month.

Please correct my sentences.

Now is this sentence correct?

I applied the following meaning of the dictionary :

hang on/upon sth (DEPEND ON) phrasal verb
to depend on something:
The safety of air travel hangs partly on the thoroughness of baggage checking.
