There is no point in simply typing out a full question and expecting to be provided with a full answer. You must have an answer in the same book in which you found the question, so ask about whatever it is in the answer that you are not clear about and then I will explain. (If you do not have an answer for some reason then type out your own answer and I will tell you whether or not you are correct. Everything needed to answer this question is explained in my free lectures. The lectures are a complete free course for Paper MA and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.)
