Question

I give medals---Solve: 7/2t + 2 = 4 + 7t

A. t = -7/4
B. t = -4/7
c. All numbers
D. No solution

Answer 1

B. t= -4/7 stated both sides equal 0. what does that mean?

Answer 2

is b the answer?

Answer 3

what does no solution mean

Answer 4

the question is a bit ambiguous
is the left hand side

(7/2t ) + 2 or 7 / (2t + 2) ?

Answer 5

or of course it could be (7/2) t or 3.5t

Answer 6

i think the last one is most likely

Answer 7

in which case it simplifies to
3.5t = -2

Answer 8

and t = -4/7 is the correct answer

Answer 9

(7/2)t + 2 = 4 + 7t --- multiply everything by 2
7t + 4 = 8 + 14t
7t - 14t = 8 - 4
-7t = 4
t = -4/7

Answer 10

to avoid confusion the equation should be written as texaschic wrote it
