Question

2(2t+4)=34(24−8t). My math teacher is on crack

Answer 1

2(2t+4)= 34(24-8t)

First, distribute into parentheses

4t+8= 816-272t

Now, subtract 4t from both sides

8= 816-276t

Subtract 816 from both sides

-808= -276t

Divide both sides by -276

2.927= t

Answer 2

2(2t+4) = 34(24-8t)

4t + 8 = 816 - 272t (Because of distributive property)

276t + 8 = 816 (Because I added the negative 192 to the other side, due to combine like terms)

276t = 808 (Subtracted 8 from 816)

t = 202/69 (After dividing 808 and 276, the answer is remained in fraction form!)
