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.
Answer:
y=5+2x
Normally I would explain it, but im in a bit of a hurry today. I apologize for the inconvenience!
First step of a synthetic divison is that we need to carry down the leading coefficient. Here the leading coefficient is 2. So, carry down 2 at the bottom.
Next step is to multiply the divisor -3 with this carry down number 2. So, we have got 3*(-2)= -6 which will place atthe bottom of the next coefficient 4.
Next step is to add this column.
Now repeat the same method again till the last colum.
At the end we have got 0 after the addition. Which means the remainder is 0.
So, the quotient is 2x^2-2x+2.
Answer:
5 bottle caps each second
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the unit rate, just divide the total number by the total time.
150/30
5
So 5 bottle caps per second
