To complete the working equation, we need to represent the number of hours Richard needs to work to reach 30 hours for the week.

Let's assume he needs to work an additional h hours.

The equation representing the number of hours Richard needs to work to reach 30 hours for the week is:

h + 2115 = 30

Now, let's solve the equation:

h = 30 - 2115
h = -2085
