Question 55416: Can you please show a breakdown to this? So I understand how to do these types of algebra problems? Thanks 16-5(3t-4)=8(-2t+11) Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 16-5(3t-4)=8(-2t+11)
Get rid of the parentheses:
16-15t+20 = -16t+88
Combine like terms:
-15t+36 = -16t+88
Add 16t to both sides to get:
t+36 = 88
Subtract 36 from both sides to get:
t=52
