Answer:
(-14+3/2b) - (1+8/2b) goes with -15-5/2b
(5+26)+2b+3/2) goes with 4b+13/2
(-10+b)+(7b-5) goes with 8b-15
(7/2b-3)-(8+6b) goes with -5/2b-11
Step-by-step explanation:
16 - 5(3t - 4) = 8(-2t + 11) <em>use distributive property</em>: <em>a(b + c) = ab + ac</em>
16 - (5)(3t) - (5)(-4) = (8)(-2t) + (8)(11)
16 - 15t + 20 = -16t + 88
36 - 15t = -16t + 88 <em>subtract 36 from both sides</em>
-15t = -16t + 52 <em>add 16t to both sides</em>
t = 52
