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>

Which choice shows +=7
V125BC [204]

Answer:

y=-x +7 is the slope-intercept form and the graph is shown in the attachment.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is

x + y = 7

We solve for y to get:

y =  - x + 7

This is now of the form, y=mx+c

This is called the slope-intercept form.

Since the slope is negative, the graph slopes backwards. Also the y-intercept is 7, so the graph will intersect the y-axis at 7
