The solution isn't to give us links to illegal online copies.

How about just writing out the details of the argument for us?

Have you tried showing M_{0i} = 0 yourself? If you can do that, the rest follows quite naturally but I should probably point out that this is a homework problem (its an exercise at the end of the chapter).

WannabeNewton, I'll try again, I didn't notice it was an exercise. thanks.
