Can someone please help with this?

First, be patient. We're all volunteers doing this around real lives. We're not on here 24/7 waiting for the next question to come in.

Second, please go read our guidelines for posting homework:

You've got a LOT here. It seems an unrealistic expectation for someone to just start going through all this and not even have any idea what you have attempted, what you need, etc.

I did not need all the smart comments. I know the rules and guidelines of posting homework. This post was supposed to be deleted, there is a post with the portions I completed. I understand no one is sitting around waiting and we all have real lives. If you want to be a help, be a help, no one needs your rude remarks and I will post this as an inappropriate post.

There was nothing "smart" in what I said - I was perfectly serious. And you need to explain how I am supposed to know that this post was supposed to be deleted? Or for that matter how I'm supposed to know you know the rules when they weren't followed. And posting again only an hour later isn't really showing that you know we're not on here 24/7, is it?

You entire post demonstrates that everything I said was completely legitimate.

Go ahead, report away.
