Question

I need help with this. Thanks

5) One approach to "offset correction" involves the adjustment of the values of Rc1 and Rc2 so as to
reduce the differential output voltage to zero when both input terminals are grounded. This offset-
nulling process can be accomplished by utilizing a potentiometer in the collector circuit, as shown in the
circuit below. We wish to find the potentiometer setting, represented by the fraction x of its value
connected in series with Re1, that is required for nulling the output offset voltage that results from:
(a) Rc1 being 4% higher than nominal and Rc2 4% lower than nominal
(b) Q1 having an area 20% larger than that of Q2
