i cant figure out the following problem: 7+3t t
____ = _
4 8
Answer:
in words its 7 + 3t over 4 = t over 8
Answer:
i think its t=14 over negative five. you have to clear the fractions first by multiplying the entire equation by 8, which is the least common denominator....im learning this right now =]
Answer:
((7+3t)/4)=(t/8) multiply both sides by 8 to get rid of the deniminator 8*((7+3t)/4)=8*(t/8) The 8 on the left side will be divided by the 4 in the denominator AND the 8's on the right side will cancel out, so you have 2*(7+3t) = t Now, multiply the 2 with each term in the parenthesis 14+6t = t subtract 6t from both sides 14+6t -6t = t -6t 14 = -5t So now t = -(14/5) Always so your steps so that the teacher can see a trend of where you went wrong. You will lose less points and they will be able to correct where you went wrong.
Answer:
YAY!! i did it correctly =]
Answer:
the textbook was wrong then. it said it was -2
Answer:
well that has to be wrong...what textbook do you own?
Answer:
Are you sure you gave me the right problem, or that I typed it the way the book has it?
Answer:
If the solution is negative 2, then the question should probably be (7 + 3t)/4 = -t/8 or -(7 + 3t)/4 = t/8

where were you guys when i took my SAT's?!
