Homework Statement



Hello, My homework is online it would be to much trouble for me to type it all out it has a diagram with it. I cannot copy and paste it either. So if someone would be so kind as to message me I can send it through email as a word doc with a screen shot attached. I have been at it for 2 hours and it doesn't make sense. You don't even have to do the problem just explain the solution to me. Please and thanks,
Jordan
