3. Update the Normal style to reflect the changes made to the first body paragraph.
4. Apply the updated Normal style to the first four paragraphs in the document, from "Nina Sanchez" to "20 February 2021".
5. Insert a right-aligned header with Sanchez as the header text followed by a plain page number, and then close the Header & Footer tab. [Mac Hint: Insert a Top of page (Header) page number with Right alignment.]
6. Create a First Line indent of 0.5" for all the body paragraphs, beginning with "The rising popularity…" and ending with "…keep cutting the cord."
7. On page 2, before the period in the sentence "In addition, technology companies…competition for entertainment dollars.", insert a citation to a new source using the information shown in Figure 1.
