Well first you wanna simplify both sides so..
5+5t=2t+23 you then wanna isolate the variable so...
3t=18 divide by 3 and ...
t=6
1) x + 3.2= -3.5
subtract 3.2 from both sides
x+ 3.2 - 3.2= -3.5 - 3.2
it cancels out on the left
x= -6.7
2) 8/9x= 32
divide both sides by 8/9
8/9x ÷ 8/9= 32 ÷ 8/9
it cancels out on the left
to divide on the right, multiply fraction by its reciprocal/inverse
x= 32 * 9/8
multiply numerators (top)
x= (32*9)/8
x= 288/8
x= 36
ANSWER: 1) x= -6.7; 2) x= 36
Hope this helps! :)
