Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

|x - 16| less than/equal to 4

Means x can be between;

-4+16 and 4+16, i.e [12,20]

|y - 6| less than/equal to 2

Means x can be between,

-2+6 and 2+6, i.e [4,8]

x - y would be greatest when x is greatest and y is least:

20 - 4 = 16

3 people work full time together on a project, but their total time on the project is to be equivalent to only 1 person working
NikAS [45]
Let x = the amount of time that the third person needs to work on the job to add up to one

1 = 1/2 + 1/3 + x

1 - 1/2 - 1/3 = x

To subtract the fractions we need to put them all over a common denominator. Let's use 3*2 = 6 as the denominator; so 1 = 6/6, 1/2 = 3/6, 1/3 = 2/6:

6/6 - 3/6 - 2/6 = x

1/6 = x

The third person must work 1/6 time on the project.
