Answer 1

Let me give you a hint for the future. With a title like "assist pls" no one knows if this is a psychology question, an English question, a history question, a home ec question, a math, chemistry, physics, biology or what have you question so you're HOPING that someone with the right credentials will look at your post and answer it. Bottom line......you should have said it was a math question. Then a math tutor know you need help.
