Dave Posted December 7, 2005 Share Posted December 7, 2005 Sorry, but some of us are quite busy. This isn't a place to get your homework done for you. We'll offer hints, but in the end it's your responsibility to get assignments done. Clearly you were more than capable of doing this particular problem, so we obviously wouldn't have helped that much anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
