zubhanwc3 · Answer

i don't know what they are, so im asking.

kainui · Answer

Hmm, well it makes it hard to know the difference between two things if you don't even know what they are in the first place.

zubhanwc3 · Answer

so would you mind explaining them?

kainui · Answer

I suggest you read your textbook or notes, and then coming back and asking a question.

zubhanwc3 · Answer

or you can be helpful, and let me know, since i came to openstudy for a reason>.>

See, I can tell you or explain it here, but this is calculus. You need to start relying on yourself to figure things out. I can help you, but if you have absolutely no idea what these things are, then you've not even started or tried on your own yet.

tl;dr
I'm only willing to help those who help themselves.
