Besides needing to use the template (as BvU has suggested) you are also required to attempt the problem on your own and to show your work.

As others have said, Please repost and fill out the Homework Help Template you are provided when starting a new thread in the schoolwork forums. That includes the section on the Relevant Equations, and showing your Attempt at the Solution.
