Question

What is 5|3t+5|=25 and explain

Answer 1

t=0 t = -10/3

Explanation:

5|3t+5|=25

Divide each side by 5

5|3t+5| /5=25/5

|3t+5|=5

Now to get rid of the absolute value we get two equations, one positive and one negative

3t+5 =5 3t+5 = -5

Subtract 5 from each side

3t+5-5 =5-5 3t+5-5 = -5-5

3t =0 3t = -10

Divide by 3

3t/3 = 0/3 3t/3 = -10/3

t=0 t = -10/3
