If my question is 375 + (-5t) = 25 + 2t

What does t equal

9 answers

To solve the equation \(375 + (-5t) = 25 + 2t\), we can start by simplifying it:

  1. Rewrite the equation: \[ 375 - 5t = 25 + 2t \]

  2. Add \(5t\) to both sides to get all the \(t\) terms on one side: \[ 375 = 25 + 2t + 5t \] This simplifies to: \[ 375 = 25 + 7t \]

  3. Next, subtract \(25\) from both sides to isolate the term with \(t\): \[ 375 - 25 = 7t \] This simplifies to: \[ 350 = 7t \]

  4. Then, divide both sides by \(7\) to solve for \(t\): \[ t = \frac{350}{7} = 50 \]

So, \(t\) equals \(50\).

If my question is 56 + 12t = 33 + 14t
What does t equal?

To solve the equation \(56 + 12t = 33 + 14t\), we can follow these steps:

  1. Start with the original equation: \[ 56 + 12t = 33 + 14t \]

  2. Subtract \(12t\) from both sides to get all the \(t\) terms on one side: \[ 56 = 33 + 14t - 12t \] This simplifies to: \[ 56 = 33 + 2t \]

  3. Next, subtract \(33\) from both sides to isolate the term with \(t\): \[ 56 - 33 = 2t \] This simplifies to: \[ 23 = 2t \]

  4. Finally, divide both sides by \(2\) to solve for \(t\): \[ t = \frac{23}{2} = 11.5 \]

So, \(t\) equals \(11.5\).

If plant A starts at 56cm and grows 12cm every month and plant B starts at 33cm and grows 14cm every month
At 11.5 months they will be

To find the heights of Plant A and Plant B after 11.5 months, we can use the following equations:

  1. For Plant A:

    • Starting height: 56 cm
    • Growth rate: 12 cm per month

    The height of Plant A after \( t \) months is given by: \[ \text{Height of Plant A} = 56 + 12t \]

  2. For Plant B:

    • Starting height: 33 cm
    • Growth rate: 14 cm per month

    The height of Plant B after \( t \) months is given by: \[ \text{Height of Plant B} = 33 + 14t \]

Now, let's calculate their heights after 11.5 months.

For Plant A:

\[ \text{Height of Plant A} = 56 + 12 \times 11.5 \] \[ = 56 + 138 = 194 \text{ cm} \]

For Plant B:

\[ \text{Height of Plant B} = 33 + 14 \times 11.5 \] \[ = 33 + 161 = 194 \text{ cm} \]

Summary

  • Height of Plant A after 11.5 months: 194 cm
  • Height of Plant B after 11.5 months: 194 cm

So, after 11.5 months, both Plant A and Plant B will be 194 cm tall.

-30 + (-10t) and -15 + (-12t)
After how many minutes will they be in the same elevation? T = time / minutes

To find the time \( t \) when the two expressions \(-30 - 10t\) and \(-15 - 12t\) are equal, we can set them equal to each other and solve for \( t \).

Step 1: Set the expressions equal to each other

\[ -30 - 10t = -15 - 12t \]

Step 2: Rearrange the equation

To isolate terms involving \( t \), first add \( 10t \) to both sides: \[ -30 = -15 - 12t + 10t \]

This simplifies to: \[ -30 = -15 - 2t \]

Next, add \( 15 \) to both sides: \[ -30 + 15 = -2t \] \[ -15 = -2t \]

Step 3: Solve for \( t \)

Now, divide both sides by \(-2\): \[ t = \frac{-15}{-2} = \frac{15}{2} = 7.5 \]

Conclusion

The two expressions will be at the same elevation after 7.5 minutes.

What elevation will they be at after 7.5 minutes

To find the elevation of both expressions at \( t = 7.5 \) minutes, we can substitute \( t = 7.5 \) into each expression:

Expression 1: \(-30 - 10t\)

\[ \text{Elevation}_1 = -30 - 10(7.5) \] \[ = -30 - 75 \] \[ = -105 \]

Expression 2: \(-15 - 12t\)

\[ \text{Elevation}_2 = -15 - 12(7.5) \] \[ = -15 - 90 \] \[ = -105 \]

Conclusion

After \( 7.5 \) minutes, both expressions will be at an elevation of -105.
