Question

I don’t understand how to factor fractions :( can someone help me with this problem

Answer 1

First you take 8 common which is the highest number that can divide both the nimbers, then u can also take t common...now taking a negative common is up to you. so I did all this in the second step. Then you just set it equal to 0. t=0 and 15/2

Answer 2

If you want to learn to factor fractions, it's easy
for example
-16×(t²+15/2t)
now -16×t² is -16t² , but -16×15/2t, first you factor -16 with number that is above the line, it would be -16×15t, and then divide with a number below the line
so it's -16t²-(16×15)/2t= -16t²-120t
and next solve
0=-16t²-120t
0=8t²(2t-15)
8t²=0. 2t=15
t1=0. t2=15/2
there are two solutions
