5 (t+7) = 2 (2t+7) answer

Simplifying 5 (t + 7) = 2 (2t + 7)

Reorder the terms: 5 (7 + t) = 2 (2t + 7) (7 * 5 + t * 5) = 2 (2t + 7) (35 + 5t) = 2 (2t + 7)

Reorder the terms: 35 + 5t = 2 (7 + 2t) 35 + 5t = (7 * 2 + 2t * 2) 35 + 5t = (14 + 4t)

Solving 35 + 5t = 14 + 4t

Solving for variable 't'.

Move all terms containing t to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-4t' to each side of the equation.

35 + 5t + - 4t = 14 + 4t + - 4t

Combine like terms: 5t + - 4t = 1t 35 + 1t = 14 + 4t + - 4t

Combine like terms: 4t + - 4t = 0 35 + 1t = 14 + 0 35 + 1t = 14

Add '-35' to each side of the equation. 35 + - 35 + 1t = 14 + - 35

Combine like terms: 35 + - 35 = 0 0 + 1t = 14 + - 35 1t = 14 + - 35

Combine like terms: 14 + - 35 = - 21 1t = - 21

Divide each side by '1'. t = - 21

Simplifying t = - 21
