Hello and welcome to MHB! :D

We ask that our users show their progress (work thus far or thoughts on how to begin) when posting questions. This way our helpers can see where you are stuck or may be going astray and will be able to post the best help possible without potentially making a suggestion which you have already tried, which would waste your time and that of the helper.

Please post each question in a separate thread, along with what you've tried or your thoughts on the problem, and when you are done, let me know so I can delete this thread.

Thanks!

Posting multiple problems on multiple websites without showing ANY of your own work really is in bad form. In any case, please show YOUR work - one problem at a time, There are many who are willing to HELP. There are a few who are willing just to give out solutions, but most like to discourage such behavior.
 
I should also add, that when you re-post each question in separate threads, please be sure the mathematics is formatted such that it is readable and free from ambiguity.
 
I saw where these same questions were posted on another site by the same username, and images were posted indicating this is a "Final Assessment" and so I am closing this thread until I hear from the OP (via private message) regarding permission given to seek outside help with a graded assignment.
