Question

16-2t=5t+9 any answers

Answer 1

t = 1

Explanation:

Combine the t terms on the right side, so that the resulting t term will have a positive coefficient:

16 = 7t + 9

Subtract 9 from both sides, to isolate 7t:

7 = 7t

Divide both sides by 7 to obtain a solution:

t = 7/7 = 1

t = 1

Answer 2

The answer is: t = 1

You need to separate t from everything to figure out what it is.

Step 1: Subtract 9 from both sides, so we get 7 - 2t = 5t

Step 2: Add 2t to both sides, so we get 7 = 7t.

Step 3: Divide by 7, meaning t = 1.

Next you should check your work. If we plug 1 in for t, we get 14 = 14, so the answer is correct.

Hope this helps!
