QuestionSolve for $t$ in the equation: $-7t - 10t = -17$ . What is $t$ ?

Studdy Solution

STEP 1

Assumptions1. The equation is -7t -10t = -17. The variable to solve for is t

STEP 2

First, we need to combine like terms on the left side of the equation. $-7t -10t = -17t$

STEP 3

Now, we have the equation -17t = -17.

STEP 4

To isolate t, we divide both sides of the equation by -17.
$t = \frac{-17}{-17}$

STEP 5

Calculate the value of t.
$t = \frac{-17}{-17} =1$ So, the solution to the equation is t =1.
