Question

What is the value of t in the equation 1/4t - 6 = -4

Answer 1

t= 1/8

Explanation:

1/4t - 6 = -4

move the 6 to the right side then add

1/4t = 2

the multiply each term by 4t to eliminate the fractions

1/4t(4t)=2(4t)

simplify the left side

1=2(4)

the simplify the right side

1=8t

then solve the equation

t = 1/8

Answer 2

t = 8

Explanation:

What is the value of t in the equation 1/4t - 6 = -4

1/4t - 6 = -4

1/4t = -4 + 6

1/4t = 2

t = 2 * 4

t = 8

check

1/4 * 8 - 6 = -4

2 - 6 = -4

-4 = -4

the answer is good
