Read all the instructions carefully then answer. Kindly give me a detailed answer in a clear handwriting of the subparts ,e,f and g by mentioning the subpart's name. It is one whole question. All the subparts are related. Take your time solving this. I am attaching the full question but I only need e,f and g (in details). All the questions are related. This is my fourth time uploading these questions as I got wrong answers previously. So kindly answer this one by following the given instructions. I am strictly forbading to give the answers of subpart a and b. This is my fourth time uploading this question and everytime you are giving me answers of a,b and c. I will upvote if the answer is correct. Thank you.
