I suggest you take this class over next year.
Jiskha tutors do not do your work for you.
I know some of these are really simple, and I can figure them out easy enough, but please answer all questions. I'm learning this subject, but I have to complete the entire school year within a month and I'm up to my head in homework and I just don't have time to learn this at the moment.
That's what I get for restarting the school year last month for switching schools, I guess.
