@anaerrez Two things to help you understand those of us working free to help those who post questions:

1) We had to study and practice to learn what mathematics we know. So, in a sense, we were "dumb" until we put in the time to study and work.

2) Practice ups performance. So, we want you to practice and learn and become empowered.

3) We are not allowed to dole out answers here.

So, work with us, please.
