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.
The percent would be 29%. You need to move the decimal to the right twice.
Answer:
-2*3
Step-by-step explanation:
If she had to refund $2 for each cup (-2) and she refunded 3 cups (3) she would lose a balance of -2*3.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The only thing important in this question in the original equation is the slope, which is 3, the multiplyer for x. To find the opposite slope follow the steps below.
The first step is to make the original slope into a fraction.

Then flip the numerator and denominator.

Now multiply this value by -1.

There is the opposite slope of 3.
