Answer:

1. t = 48.654

2.
x = (8)/(3)

3.
s = (49)/(4)

4.
y = (19)/(12)

Explanation:

To solve equations using variables, perform inverse operations to undo each part and isolate the variable.

1.
(t)/(5.4) =9.01

Multiply by 5.4 on both sides to undo division.

t = 9.01 * 5.4

t = 48.654

2.
(3)/(4)x = 2

Multiply both sides by the reciprocal of 3/4 which is 4/3.


x = 2*(4)/(3) \\x = (8)/(3)

3.
s + (1)/(4) = 12(1)/(2)

Convert 12 1/2 into an improper fraction.


s + (1)/(4) = (25)/(2)

Subtract 1/4 from both sides.


s + (1)/(4) - (1)/(4)  = (25)/(2) - (1)/(4)

To subtract fractions without common denominators, convert 25/2 into a fraction with denominator of 4.


s = (50)/(4) - (1)/(4)\\s = (49)/(4)

4.
2(2)/(3) + y = 4 (1)/(4)

Subtract 2 2/3 from both sides.


2(2)/(3) - 2(2)/(3)  + y = 4 (1)/(4)- 2(2)/(3)

Convert each fraction into improper fractions and then to common denominators.


y = (17)/(4) - (8)/(3)\\\\ y = (51)/(12) - (32)/(12) \\\\y = (19)/(12)
