Answer:
[tex]2t-t+4=0[/tex] gives me [tex]t=-4[/tex]
This is a linear equation.
Did you really mean [tex]2t-t+4=0[/tex]? I just want to make sure since you said something about a quadratic in your question.
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]2t-t+4=0[/tex] can be simplified to [tex]t+4=0[/tex].
This is a linear equation since the exponent on all the variables we have is 1.
To solve [tex]t+4=0[/tex] for t we are going to subtract 4 on both sides:
[tex]t+4-4=0-4[/tex]
[tex]t=-4[/tex]
