Question

During weekdays, Richard is working as a part-time library assistant at a university. He needs to work for a total of 30 hours a week. For the first three days of the week, he worked 2115 hours. Complete the working equation that represents the number of hours, h , Richard needs to work to reach 30 hours for the week and solve the equation.(1 point)

h + 2115 =

h =
hours

Answer 1

h + 2115 = 30

Subtract 2115 from both sides:

h = 30 - 2115

Simplify:

h = -2085

Richard needs to work -2085 hours to reach 30 hours for the week. However, this value does not make sense as it is negative. Therefore, there may be an error in the given information or equation.
