    The reason we didn't post the answer is that we don't do that here. We don't do homework on this site. The OP (original poster), has to do the work. Giving the answer doesn't help anyone, least of all the student.

    We can guide them, help them, but we do not provide the answer. They have to come up with that on their own.

    It's not easy. For one, they expect you to use complete words, not chat speak, just like this site. In fact, on this site, chat speak is against the rules, rules you agreed to when you joined.

    you are = you're
    I'm = I'm
    in2 = into

    This isn't a cell phone. You don't get charged by the letter here. It's free, so use real words. :)

    :) Much better. Explaining the equation is just fine. You did well there. Now we wait for the poster to come back, and see if your explanation helped.

    Good job. :)

    Better! :) But, it's you're, not your. You're = you are. "Cool, so you're (you are) in high school".

    Your is possessive, it shows ownership. For example "Is that your dog?", or "Your brother is cute". You can't have a "your in". Get it? An easy way to remember the difference between your and you're is to break up you're into you are, that will help you hear the difference. :)

    It's like there, their and they're. Big difference between the three. :)
