Question

3/2+t=1/2 please help me solve

Answer 1

Hello!

Our first step is to identify the LCD (which is 2) and to multiply (t) by (2/2) so that t becomes a fraction with denominator 2:

(3/2) + (2/2)t = 1/2

Multiplying this thru by 2 removes the fractions: 3 + 2t = 1.

Solving for t, we subtract 3 from both sides, obtaining 2t = -2.

Then t = -2/2, or t = -1 (answer)

Answer 2

Hey there! :)

3/2 + t = 1/2

To solve for t, we must isolate our given variable [f].

So, we must first subtract 3/2 from both sides.

3/2 + t - 3/2 = 1/2 - 3/2

Simplify.

t = -2/2

Simplify.

t = -1

Therefore, our variable [f] equals -1.

To check as to whether or not t is truly equal to -1, we must plug in -1 for t into our original equation.

3/2 + t = 1/2

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

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

Simplify.

1/2 = 1/2

Therefore, f = -1

~Hope I helped!~
