How do I get the option to show how much time I have left on my battery?

Click on the battery icon on the Menu Bar and select Show and then Time.

If it's not on the Menu Bar, go to: System Preferences - Energy Saver

change 'Settings for:" to Battery (if it's not already)

then click on the 'Options' tab

Put a check next to "Show battery status..."
