Answer 4

Yeah but sometimes you have to explain it so the next time they can try it by themselves. I answer without explaining it sometimes, but then they ask another question using the same formula and type of question. It doesnt help anyone if they dont know how to do it for later on, but good job just try to explain it a few times.

Answer 5

thank you both for your help and ashly you are correct an explanation was what I was looking for

Answer 6

its a simple question with an easy answer, it requires no help. People arent looking for help, they just want the answers, so I dont waste their time... if I do, they get mad lol

Answer 7

OMG YOU WANTED THE EXPLANATION? thats a first!!!

Answer 8

Sometimes people have the answer they just dont know how to solve it, so that means that this site is not only for the answers, its for an explanation. Otherwise the moderators will send you an email.

Answer 9
