Algebra.Com's Answer #398023 by blacksaibot(4)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Assuming you wrote the problem correctly... it will be the same as: \n" ); document.write( "(7t-4) * (2t+3t) * (4/2)\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(4/2) is easily rewritten as 2\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Do what you can within the parenthesis first. \n" ); document.write( "(2t + 3t) = 5t\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(7t-4) * (5t) * (4/2)\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Multiply the first expression (7t-4) * (5t), worry about 2 at the end\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(7t * 5t) + (-4 * 5t) = (35t^2 - 20t) \r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So now we have: (35t^2 - 20t) * 2 = 70t^2 - 40t\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Since you never wrote a number after the equal sign, you cannot really solve for t in this situation. Traditionally, you would have complete the square but again, there is nothing else to solve for.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
