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
Answer:
94.5 square inches :)
Step-by-step explanation:
Based on the answer choices, we suspect you intend
.. (x -1) +26 = -4x
This simplifies to
.. x +25 = -4x
.. 25 = -5x . . . . . subtract x
.. -5 = x . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x
Selection D appears to be appropriate for the question we think you asked.
