    In this instance, your question will be treated exactly like a question in the homework section.

    We have to see some of the work effort on your part.

    You learn nothing by someone here just plopping an answer down for you.

    You learn much more if you tell us what your answers are and we get to agree or disagree with them. Very similar to the "Socratic" method of teaching.

    Well, judging by your member name, and the question you asked, seems your taking some sort of test.

    Your question really belongs at the Homework Help Forum, where you will find this announcement:

    https://www.askmehelpdesk.com/other-...-b-u-font.html

    Since your doing a test, you must have learned something, so give us what you know and we can help from there.

    But, you will get resistance just to get help and an answer to your question.
