Question

Compute a value for t that satisfies the equation below.
-2/3t - 3 =-5

Answer 1

sir do you know the OS rules

Answer 2

is this ur equation ?
\(\Huge\frac{-2}{3t-3}=-5\)

Answer 3

no

Answer 4

-2/3t

Answer 5

- 3

Answer 6

= 5

Answer 7

this one ?
\(\Huge\frac{-2}{3t}-3=-5\)

Answer 8

yeah ^-^ how do you do that exactly ?

Answer 9

like how did you write that ?

Answer 10

its \(\Huge\color{green}{LATEX} \)

so , first start with adding +3 for both sides , like this
\(\Huge\frac{-2}{3t}-3+3=-5+3\)

Answer 11

\(\Huge\frac{-2}{3t} =-2\)

got it untill now ?

Answer 12

yeah :)

Answer 13

then do the \(\Huge\color{blue}{Cross-multiplication}\)

like this
\(\Huge -2=-2×3t\)

Answer 14

so as u can see you would have this equation
\(\Huge -6t=-2\)
can u find t now ?

Answer 15

yes thank you ^-^

Answer 16

then devide by \( \color{red}{-6}\)

\(\Huge\color{green}{t}=\frac{-2}{-6}=\frac{1}{3}\)

Answer 17

so 3?

Answer 18

no , check again , its : \(\Huge\color{red}{\frac{1}{3}}\)

Answer 19

and ur wlc any time ^_^

Answer 20

ohhhhh okay thanks again ^-^

Answer 21

np ur wlc ^_^
