    This is not help, this is homework. We will help you clarify but not do. How will you learn with just the answers?

    How about this. Attempt the example and show your work. Post what you did and how you did it. We can't help you to understand the problem if we don't know where you are going wrong. Helping you to understand it isn't doing a problem out of the text and giving you the answer. Its seeing what you are missing and filling in your gaps in knowledge or correcting a step in your technique.

    We aren't going to teach you how to do your work and give you examples. That is what your class is for and what your professor gets paid for. We are volunteers. We donate our time and expertise for free to this site, and we can't help you unless you abide by the rules of the site. That means SHOW your work and solutions, and let us know where in your work you need help. It also means not rating other members unhelpful because they are abiding by the terms of the site. If you would like help, please do what we have asked and SHOW your work, and someone can help you where you are going wrong.
