Answer:

  1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the proportion of time the third person spends on the project. You want ...

  1/2 + 1/3 + x = 1 . . . . full-time equivalents

  5/6 + x = 1 . . . . simplify

  x = 1/6 . . . . . . . subtract 5/6

The third person should budget 1/6 of their time to the project.

3x2 + 2(x2 – 20) = 16 - 2x2
lana66690 [7]

3x(2) + 2(2x - 20) = 16 - 2x(2)

6x + 4x - 40 = 16 - 4x

10x - 40 = 16 - 4x

14x - 40 = 16

14x = 56

x = 4

Hope this helps! ;)
