What is the answer to 12t−2< −5t+36

t < 2.24

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer to t, solve for t using inverse operations.

12t - 2 < -5t + 36

17t - 2 < 36

17t < 38

t < 2.24

t<  17/38

Step-by-step explanation:

\begin{aligned}12t-2 & < -5t + 36 12t&< -5t+38 &(\text{Add } 2 \text{ to both sides}) 17t &< 38 &(\text{Add } 5t \text{ to both sides}) t&<\dfrac{38}{17}&(\text{Divide both sides by }17) \end{aligned}
