b) -30,-15
c) -3, 1
d) -320, 1280
Answer:
B) 0.60n+1.48n = 176.80
Step-by-step explanation:
0.60 for every spiral wire per book = 0.60*n
0.74 per chipboard cover, 2 needed for each book = 1.48 per book = 1.48*n
Put it together: 0.60n+1.48n = 176.80
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.
