Answer:

T = 5

Explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

4=2/5t + 2

Step 2: Flip the equation.

2/5t + 2 = 4

Step 3: Subtract 2 from both sides.

2/5t + 2 − 2 = 4 −2

2/5t = 2

Step 4: Multiply both sides by 5/2.

(5/2) *(2/5t)= (5/2) *(2)

Answer:

t=5

Answer:

t=5

Explanation:

4=2+2/5 t

Subtract 2 from both sides

2=2/5 t

Multiply 2/5 by its reciprocal on both sides so multiply by 5/2

(5/2) times 2 is 5

so t is 5
