Question

Simplify and solve the following linear equation: 4( t – 4) = 5 (2t + 4)​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

given linear equation is

$4(t - 4) = 5(2t + 4)$

to find value of variable t

solution

simplify equation by solving brackets

$4t - 16 = 10t + 20$

solve similar terms

$4t - 10t = 20 + 16$

$- 6t = 36$

$t = - 6$

value of variable t is -6.
