Q. Solve the linear equation. Be sure to check your solution.67=−94tThe solution set is □.
Identify equation: Identify the given linear equation.We have the equation 67=−94t, where we need to solve for t.
Isolate variable: Isolate the variable t. To isolate t, we need to get rid of the fraction−(4/9) that is multiplying t. We can do this by multiplying both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of −(4/9), which is −9/4.
Multiply by reciprocal: Multiply both sides of the equation by −49.$(67)⋅(−49)=−(94)t⋅(−49)
Simplify both sides: Simplify both sides of the equation.On the left side, we multiply the numerators and the denominators separately: (7×−9)/(6×4).On the right side, the −9/4 and −4/9 cancel each other out, leaving us with just t.
Perform multiplication: Perform the multiplication on the left side.(7×−9)/(6×4)=−63/24
Simplify fraction: Simplify the fraction on the left side if possible.−2463 can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 3.(−363)/(324)=−821
Final value of t: Write down the final value of t.t = −821
