Bootstrap/JQuery: Cannot get modal to show

Question

Ok, so I hate to be that guy who posts a homework question, but I have hit the end of my rope.

I need a modal to appeal whenever I click the button.

I've tried:

The data-* way of showing the modal (as seen in the code below)
Showing the modal thru a JS function using $(#mainModal).modal('show')
Commenting out the jQuery version so that it doesn't conflict with Bootstrap's jQuery.

Nothing on the internet seems to work. Would someone mind telling me how to get the modal to show?

Thank you much!
