1/2 t-4(2+t)=20
1/2 t-8-4t=20
least common multiple=2
t-16-8t=40
-7t=40+16
-7t=56
t=56/-7=-8
Answer: t=-8
To check
-8/2 - 4(2-8)=-4-4(-6)=-4+24=20

Step-by-step explanation:
-10 2/3 , -10.6
Answer:
(5x+1) (x+4)
Step-by-step explanation:
CommentI think you need brackets to clarify what you mean. I think it should be written as
10b/(2b + 8)
If that is the case the reciprocal is
(2b + 8)/10b You just turn everything up side down. There are technical ways of doing this, but the easiest way is just to do what I just did.
Put the numerator in the denominator,
Put the denominator in the numerator.
You could simplify this a bit.
2b/10b + 8/10b
which reduces further.
1/5 + 4/5b
Just to make sure you understand where that b is, I will do this in
Latex.
Alternate answerIf you do mean what your wrote then the reciprocal is 2b / 10b + 8 which is 1/5 + 8 = 8 + 0.2 = 8.2
The 8 has nothing to do with the reciprocal under these conditions.
The answerI have given you all the choices I can think of without going into decimals. If you have choices, please list them under the comments.
