4 over t-3 + t over 2=-2

4%2F%28t-3%29%2Bt%2F2=-2 
Simplest denominator, 2(t-3)


8%2Bt%28t-3%29=-4%28t-3%29
8%2Bt%5E2-3t=-4t%2B12
t%5E2%2Bt-4=00

If it's 4%2F%28t+-+3%29+%2B+t%2F2+=+-+2, then the correct quadratic equation to solve is: highlight_green%28t%5E2+%2B+t+-+4+=+0%29

As this trinomial cannot be factored with INTEGERS, the equation can be solved using any of the following methods:

1) Quadratic equation formula

2) Completing the square

3) Graphing the parabola, and determining its roots/zeroes/solutions/x-intercepts.

Note that the other person's answer: highlight%284t%5E2-11t%2B3=0%29 is TOTAL RUBBISH/GARBAGE, and so, as everyone knows by now, IGNORE this and MANY of his other "attempts."
