You should be fortunate that you have parents that give a damn about your education. If you take this seriously and follow the advice the rest of us give you, you'll one day be grateful you have the parent(s) that you do. Sounds like you should've focused on your studies during the school year and you wouldn't be in this situation.

Maybe if you actually learned how to do such problems by yourself (instead of getting someone else to do them for you), you wouldn't -need- Summer Math.
Just a thought 鈽?br>

you need to answer these questions. Most of them are very basic mathematics. we cannot answer them for you if you are to learn anything. just remember the rule of taking the % and multiplying by the $

Do it yourself! Do you want to grow up to completely incapable and ignorant? Listen to your mom! You won't become a superchick by having other people do your work for you.

Quit blaming mom and get something done..you'll need %
later in life, especially if you have credit card debt, mortgages
and all the other crap one needs.

It may not be your mother who is retarded and hence the
summer math lessons...

If you do them yourself, then you will learn how to do them. Then you won't need to do summer math in the future.
