Yes.
Anybody else out there?
If you don't give him the answers is he going to learn anything? No, he's just going to get a bad grade. At least this way he can get at least a mildly decent grade. Otherwise, he ends up with nothing.
It's your duty as a friend to help someone out in need, I think.
Tel him no. People cheatin off ya never ends up good.
No. He doesnt learn anything by cheating. Or you could give him the answers and let him not learn anything. And let him go for the rest of his life not knowing anything. :)
I think you should help him out, But you need to let him know you wont keep doing it, dont let him make it a habit of bumming of you, but you should always help out your friends if they need it.
Is it something he needs to learn?
Simple answer is No. If you have to ask if you think it's okay, then I think that you think that answer is also No.

You bastard nik. I did a few and explained them so you learned, and I already gave you a page witht he formula explaining what to substitute and how to do it. God forbid that involve work.Quote:

If it's something useful to learn, make him learn it, otherwise, just tell him the answers
Then tell him the answers, it's Quadratic formula. Not important.
You know you want to.
How much is he paying you?
What is this, Full House?
Of course you give him the answers. It's not like he's going to learn anything from failing. Except how to fail. Or better ways to cheat.

It is not your duty as this persons friend. Friendships aren't based on duty to one another. And if you get caught, your ass is in trouble even if you've put the work into learning something.
So yeah, morality and common sense lead me to believe helping him cheat is a dumb idea.
I would help him.
