Answer 2

If you do not want it, do not waste it.

The sentence is a simple sentence. To convert to a complex sentence, you add a subordinate clause, which may be a noun, adjective, or adverb clause.

The sentence implies that if one does want something, one shouldn't waste it.

So in this case, we use a noun clause. Since the sentence seems like it is directed at the reader, we use the second person noun clause 'you'.
