The problem express that the fraction of time worked by the three people need to be equivalent to one person working full time. This means that the fraction need to add up to one. We know one person works ½ time on the project and another works one third 1/3 time.

Given:

A = the amount of time that the third person needs to work on the job to add up to one

1 = ½ +1/3 + A

1 – ½ - 1/3 = A

To subtract the fractions put them all over a common denominator. Use 3 * 2 as the denominator.

1=6/6, ½ = 3/6, 1/3 = 2/6

A = 6/6 – 3/6 – 2/6

<span>A = 1/6 , The third person  must work on the project</span>

If f(x) = 2x² + 5x - 1; g(x) = x + 3, find the following.
Irina18 [472]
F/g(x) = (2x^2 + 5x - 1)/(x + 3)

f/g(4) = (2(16) + 5(4) -1)/(4 + 3)
         = (32 + 20 -1)/7
         = 51/7

Help me i dont really understand
xenn [34]

Answer:

73

Step-by-step explanation:

12(6) + 1/4 • 2^2

Square the 2 first.

12(6) + 1/4 • 4

Then multiply from left to right.

72 + 1

Lastly, add.

73

The parenthesis around the 6 mean multiplication, not the Parenthesis that are grouping symbols if you are learning PEMDAS. So your question has no grouping symbol parenthesis. Next comes Exponents, that's why we squared the 2. Multiply and Divide come next IN THE ORDER THAT THEY APPEAR FROM LEFT TO RIGHT. Then the same method with adding and subtracting. That's called the order of operations.
