Question 408287: Hi, would you check my work to see if I am doing it right and confirm the answer? Thanks.
-3(2t-5)=2(4t+7)
-6t-(-15)=8t+14
-6t-15-8t -8t
-14t-15=14
+15 +15
(-14t)/(-14t)=(29)/(14)
x=(29)/(14)

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
-3(2t-5)=2(4t+7)
-6t-(-15)=8t+14
wrong here, -3 * -5 is +15, should be
-6t + 15 = 8t + 14
15 - 14 = 8t + 6t
1 = 14t
t = 1%2F14
