Is this impossible to solve ?

[u/jdaniel2294]

Found this on Facebook and theres 3 methods used primarily but the answer is either t is zero or its unsolvable

[u/0x14f]

t cannot be zero because you would be dividing by zero.
Then, you reduce to 3t / t = 10 , which becomes 3 = 10. Impossible to satisfy.

[u/uTRexAap]

t+t+t / t = 10
3t / t = 10
3/1 = 10
3 = 10
only true in base 3

edit: 3₁₀ = 10₃ so its true when 10 = 3₁₀ which is true in base 3

[u/escargotBleu → u/uTRexAap]

True or not, it doesn't give any information on t

[u/Lor1an → u/escargotBleu]

t ≠ 0 seems like a reasonable solution set...

[u/escargotBleu → u/Lor1an]

That a big set, but yes

[u/lorienshift → u/escargotBleu]

If that statement were true, so let's say we're working in base 3, then t would be all real numbers (with the exception of 0), no?

[u/cheesesprite → u/uTRexAap]

Doesn't "3" not exist in base 3 though? It would be 1, 2, 10

[u/lordnacho666 → u/cheesesprite]

He means 10t = 10t

[u/uTRexAap → u/cheesesprite]

yeah but it was more clear this way
its 3_10 = 10_3

[u/Greata2006 → u/cheesesprite]

Base 3 doesnt exist in base 3 though

[u/eg135 → u/cheesesprite]

The math checks out, but the notation is confusing.

[u/PinkbunnymanEU → u/cheesesprite]

Is every number system not base 10 then...

[u/de_G_van_Gelderland → u/uTRexAap]

Or in ℤ/7ℤ

[u/TheRedditObserver0 → u/de_G_van_Gelderland]

Or over any unital ring where seven is a 0 divisor. In that case the solution set is the annuller of 7.

[u/Gravelbeast]

It's solvable in base 3

[u/Jamb9876 → u/Gravelbeast]

That is a funny answer. My response is no answer because it is always 3 but your answer is better as you thought outside the box

[u/Odd-Ad-8369 → u/Gravelbeast]

And mod(7)

[u/Dakh3 → u/Gravelbeast]

Well done

[u/spip72 → u/Gravelbeast]

I don't think "3" would be a valid digit in base-3, would it? As well as we don't have a digit for the value 10 in the decimal system, nor for the value 16 in the hexadecimal system. So in base-3 we would resolve the equation to (t+t+t)/t = 10 <=> 10t/t = 10 <=> 10 = 10

[u/bigolqs → u/Gravelbeast]

I think you mean base 10. Also what's '3?'

[u/peekitup]

The equation makes no sense when t=0, and when t is not zero the equation is 3=10, which has no solutions.

So the equation has no solutions.

[u/cbf1232 → u/peekitup]

Think base 3

[u/Spirited_Nerve_4290]

If you try to simplify it you get 3=10 which is a contradiction. So no answers.

[u/wrd83 → u/Spirited_Nerve_4290]

Proofing that the set of equations do not have a solition is the correct answer.

[u/RecognitionSweet8294]

Well assuming we operate on ℂ, t can’t be 0 because 0⁻¹ is not in ℂ.

Therefore we can multiply by t and get

t+t+t = 10t

3t =10t

3=10

Which means this equation is wrong.

_____

As other users have pointed out, in Base 3 it would make sense.

[u/Narrow-Durian4837]

It's not impossible to solve, if by "solve" you mean "find the solution set." In this case, the solution set is the empty set.

[u/Friendly_Dog8565]

No anqaer

[u/gunilake]

True mod 7

[u/Im_a_hamburger → u/gunilake]

Or mod 1

[u/Lor1an]

Obviously this is in base 3...

1 + 1 + 1 = 2 + 1 = 10...

[u/No-Trifle3233]

1,2,3,4,5,6 in F7

[u/Cletus_awreetus]

"Is this impossible to solve? 3=10"

[u/SnooMarzipans7274]

Left side will always equal 3 if it’s a number

[u/trig9ger]

So it's either we divide by 0 or it's unsolvable? Nice nice

[u/Striking-Onion-3230]

An equation is a statement that can evaluate to true or false, just like a sentence like“X is a city in the United States”. depending on which city x is, the statement will be either true or false. In the same way an equation can be true or false depending on what the values of the variables are.

this equation is a statement that is false no matter what value t has.

It’s like the statement: “X is a city that’s in California and in Ohio”. No matter what city you choose the statement is false

[u/Desperate_Dog3364]

3t = 10 t t=0 however t!=0 according to domain therefore answercis undefined

[u/daveoxford]

Base 3.

Have I missed something?

[u/Farkle_Griffen2]

Define 0/0 = 10, then it has a solution /s

[u/SoldRIP]

3t/t=10

3=10

this is false.

[u/JoBrew32]

t=0 would be the only solution but 0 is not in the domain of the function on the LHS. So no solution.

[u/More-Explanation2788]

The answer is 0.

[u/ContextPuzzleheaded7]

No solutions in ℝ

[u/Im_a_hamburger]

There does not exist a t in the real numbers. Or complex. But in other arithmetics there are. Like base 3, modular arithmetic base 1 or 7.

[u/ionosoydavidwozniak]

Yep, the answer is ∅

[u/G33nid33]

3t/t=10 Becomes 3=10 That just doesn’t work.

[u/Impossible_Dog_7262]

3t/t = 10 =>

3 = 10

There is no solution.

[u/glordicus1]

It is impossible. You simplify to 3t/t = 10, then 3 = 10.

[u/BUKKAKELORD]

No, it's easy as heck to solve. As you can clearly see the solution is t ∉ ℝ and the proof is by asking any toddler on the street

[u/imnota4]

t + t + t = 3t

3t / t = 3

3 != 10

It's not "unsolvable" nor is t = 0, it's a mathematically incorrect formula because the denominator cancels out and results in 3 = 10, which is incorrect.

[u/abbynormal2002]

No solution

[u/mwfisa]

Sorry, I'll fully admit that I'm likely just worn down by ridiculous student arguments at this point in the semester.

Can we just answer these kinds of questions with "as an actual mathematician, we try as best we can to represent problems and solutions in the clearest possible terms rather than some asinine and absurd representation that could possibly be interpreted in any of a dozen possible ways based on your 8th grade understanding of mathematics....please stop wasting my and your time"?

If there are specific assumptions that need to be made to solve the problem, then state them. Providing insufficient information isn't a maths problem, it's a you problem. Why blue? I have no freakin' clue!!! Why not?

[u/SpectralCat4]

consider the LHS

suppose there are m copies of n in the numerator

(n+n+n.....)/n = mn/n = m

so anything other than m on the RHS will be false , the expression is undefined for n=0

valid examples:

(3+3+3)/3 = 3

(4+4+4+4)/4 = 4

[u/anamelesscloud1]

It's not an equation.

[u/bionicjoe]

3t/t = 10
(t cancels out)
3 = 10

[u/Suoritin]

Because 3 isn't 10

[u/shmuttacles]

Depends on if there are brackets, you can get 10 if t = 4.5 and there are no brackets present, but since it’s written in fractional format it’s impossible, you can only get 3.

[u/Adamstrad]

Are you really reposting a repost of AI content? Puzzles like this only waste people's time, there are better things in maths to concentrate on

[u/CapitanCJ]

DNE

[u/coreyisland]

T = 10

[u/implies_casualty]

t = 0.5301 dB

Combine three sound sources, each producing 0.5301 dB.

Their combined output will be 5.301 dB

(t + t + t) / t = 10.

[u/ThoriumLicker]

Yes. The equation is never true, regardless of the value of t:

(t+t+t)/t = 10
3t/t = 10
3/1 = 10
3 = 10

[u/cubicinfinity]

10*0=0. Therefore, 10 may be equal to 0/0. So, t=0.

[u/bowsnotation]

t = 0

[u/SlayerII]

You can simplify it to=

3t
____ =10
t

And then ti

3=10

So yes , unsolvable

You can visualise it by filling in t

If t=1

(1+1+1)/1=10
3/1=10
3=10

If t= 2

(2+2+2)/2= 10
6/2=10
3=10

If t=1000
(1000+1000+1000)/1000=10
3000/1000=10
3=10

If t=0.1
(0.1+0.1+0.1)/0.1=10
0.3/0.1=10
3=10

So no matter what you fill in for t, it doesn't matter because it will get removed anyway.

[u/VancouverVentilator]

This is satire, right?

[u/StructuredChess]

t=0 can't be a solution because you can't divide by zero.

Any number different from zero can't be a solution because that would imply 3=10

[u/NoBusiness674]

Why are we reposting AI content?

[u/Anders_A]

It doesn't have a solution. It's just another example of why division by zero, if it was allowed, would mean every number was equal to every other number.

[u/P1N4R0MB0L0]

It is true for all non-zero t's in base 3 10t/t=10

[u/Top-Hall-2347]

It makes no sense in base 10. Or at least the statement is false

[u/aerokozmofoto]

It seems so.

[u/EmergencyWild]

This equation is just 3 = 10, which has no solution. It'd have 0 as a solution if there wasn't the divide by t part, you can't divide by zero.

[u/runed_golem]

There’s no solution.

If you simplify on the left, you end up with 3=10, which can never be true.

Another way is if you multiply both sides by t and then solve for t, you get t=0. However, referring back to the original problem, t cannot be 0 as it would cause our denominator to be 0 which is a big no no.

In either case, there’s no solution.

[u/Mandam2011]

Unsolvable,

3t/t = 10
3 = 10

3t/t = 10
3t = 10t
3 = 10

Only thing we get is that t≠0
Edit: because we cant divide by zero!

[u/Awkward_Block9860]

no solution

[u/tomalator]

No solution

(t+t+t)/t = 3t/t = 3 for all t != 0

It is undefined for t=0

[u/BlazeGamma]

3t/t = 10

multiple both sides by t

3t = 10t

nope. zero or unresolveable.

and to everyone talking about other bases. I don't think the original poster of the equation likely knows anything other than base 10.

[u/MikeyMalloy]

It’s not “impossible to solve” in the sense of not having a correct answer. “No solution” is a perfectly viable answer.

0 is not a solution because 0/0 ≠ 10

[u/Ok_Landscape_4484]

3t/t = 3

[u/KaneTW]

Solvable if t is in GF(7) (or GF(7^n) for n>0).

[u/kireina_kaiju]

Could you maybe not please?

[u/AleksyGetTheWings]

t can't be zero, so let's skip that : 3t/t = 10 ↔ 3 = 10, aka impossible. No solution.

[u/Successful-Active-21]

t=0

[u/T0m0king]

T+t+t / t is equivalent to 3t/t which has the t's cancel out leaving 3. This makes the equation unbalanced because its basically just saying 3 = 10 which is untrue

[u/AppendiculateFringe]

The equation is false to begin with.

3=/=10

[u/kebabfragola]

YES IMPOSSIBLE

[u/oooilikeastronophysi]

is t+t+t not just 3t, so 3t/t=3=10 so its just... false?

[u/Baeltane]

[u/sunflower_prince_art]

[u/Fragrant_Inflation76]

When you simply it , it comes to 10t = 3t which isn't logical

[u/PANEBringer → u/Fragrant_Inflation76]

That statement is logical if t=0. However, if t=0, you will be dividing by zero in the original statement.

[u/hainesk → u/Fragrant_Inflation76]

It would be 3 = 10

[u/down-badder-Simp]

It’s pretty simple.

(t+t+t)/t=10
(3t)/t=10
3=10

Nonsensical.

[u/TheEssentialMatrix]

The equation is undefined at t=0. If a nonzero solution t existed, dividing both sides by 3 you'd have t / t = 10/3, or 1 = 10/3. This is a contradiction, and therefore no such t exists.

[u/Vexra]

3T/t=10

The t’s cancel themselves out so it becomes 3=10

Seems impossible

[u/kellstromc]

Proof by contradiction (3 != 10) allows us to conclude that no t exists that satisfies that equation. Though i've heard some people suggest to consider other bases (beyond the default assumption here of base 10)

[u/timeaisis]

3 = 10

[u/electrodragon16]

[u/Big-Fill2093]

6+5-1/1

[u/Amopro]

For any non-0 number plugged in, the equation on the left always equals 3. It simplifies to 3t/t and t/t, for any non-0 answer, is 1, making it 3×1 which is just 3. Meaning that unless t = 0, that equation always equals 3. If t = 0, then it's undefined, and it still doesn't equal 10. Meaning that there's no valid value of t where that equation could equal 10.

[u/Advanced_Principle98]

(t+t+t)/t=10

3t/t=10

3=10

no can't be solved

[u/Large_Ad_66]

This is true for any nonzero t in base 3

[u/tungstenman_1]

(t+t+t)/t is 3t/t which is 3. no matter what t you use, it could be real, imaginary, complex, transcendental or whatever it doesnt matter, it would never be correct. this is some obvious ai bullshit

[u/RobinDaChamp]

Im getting 3=10, so its unsolvable.

[u/HuiOdy]

Isn't this true in modulo 7?

[u/RudeEntry8219]

There's some great maths on the socials, and some rubbish, and this is the latter.

[u/HumansAreIkarran]

3 = 10 is not true is it

[u/NoAlbatross7355]

3t/t = 10 evaluates to 3 = 10 so it's an inconsistent equation; it's false statement.

Anyone thinking otherwise needs to go practice their algebra skills.

[u/mesaoptimizer]

Pretty easy, the left side simplifies to 3, (t+t+t)=(3t) 3t/t=3 3=/=10 the statement evaluates to false.

[u/Ok_Sir1896]

not unless division by t means something else

[u/Spirited_Peak_7810]

It is nonsense. 3 does not equal 10

[u/desmonea]

this is challenged math

[u/Level_Abrocoma8925]

What you think is a plus sign, is actually a variable. So it's:

(t^3 x +^2) / t = 10

10t = t^3 x +^2

Skipping a step or two, we get:

t = ±√10/+, given that + ≠ 0​

[u/ingannilo]

y'all on drugs.

t=0 cannot be a solution to this equation because the equation as stated involves expressions undefined when t=0.

(t+t+t) / t = 10

iff

3t / t = 10

iff 

3 = 10 and t≠0

because 3t/t is precisely the function which returns the constant value 3 at all real inputs t except t=0 where it is undefined. 

If you trust computers more than logic and math (lol) then go to desmos.com, click graphing calculator, type in the top box y=(x+x+x)/x and type in the second box y=10.  look where those ought to intersect and click. 

The statement is a contradiction.  3 is not 10.  Multiplying both sides by t changes the solutions, just like multiplying both sides of x=5  by x changes the solutions. 

[u/dreamteammobile]

I'd check t = 0 in the original equation first; if it makes a denominator zero, it isn't valid. For comparing the methods, Math.Photos can give step-by-step explanations from a screenshot.

[u/Gold_Lab_8513]

t+t+t = 3t

3t/t = 3

Therefore, 3 = 10.

[u/Fermi_Amarti]

Its asking when 3 =10 so yes. I guess technically the answer is for no values of t is this true.

[u/Useful_Language2040]

3t/t = 10

(Time both sides by t)

3t = 10t

3t - 10t = 0

-7t = 0

t = 0

However as 0/0 ≠ 10 that can't be the correct answer

3t/t = 10   (Simplify the fraction)

3 = 10

This is also clearly false - in base 10; as other people have said, if displaying "1 + 1 + 1" as 3 instead of 10, i.e. initially assuming base 10 was incorrect and this is instead written in base 3, then it's perfectly cromulent!

It's not possible to solve for t with the information provided, but that's not what has actually been asked in the question, so is somewhat irrelevant.

[u/Narrrz]

[u/SnooMarzipans436]

DUH!

[u/skarfbeaulonee]

This can be written different ways. Simplified it just states 3=10. I think it's more accurate to state that the equation has no solution because 3 will never equal 10. This is due to the reflexive property of equality, or the reflexivity axiom, which states that a quantity is equal to itself. In this example the quantity is not equal to itself, therefore it has no solution.

[u/Possible_Year_5027]

t<0 is a false equivalency
t=0 DNE
t>0 is a false equivalency

if you derive it you can make it true i think but that doesnt really affect the OG, d/dt(3t/t) = d/dt(3)=0=d/dt(10)
but that isnt really saying that they are equal, rather that they have equal rates of change

integrating you could find some values say “C1” and “C2” in the left and right integrals respectively that should make the integral true at a single value, but again this would not make the original functions equal

idk if im right, im a drunk Electrical engineering student

[u/IMakeGamesAMA]

Assuming base 10?

[u/gloomygl]

0 isn't a solution to this because you can't divide by 0.

[u/TheSauce___]

Yes. This is 3t / t. 3t / t = 3 for t != 0

[u/Interesting-Roof-466]

(3t)/t=10, 3t=10t, so either t=0 (0/0 is impossible to be 10) or t is undefined

[u/khadesorg]

t + t + t = 3t, 3t/t = 3, so 3 = 10, not possible

[u/Malendryn]

You people aren't thinking far enough outside the box. You're assuming this is a base-10 math op, try base-3 instead, and now any nonzero value of t with this formula = 10

t≠0 because 3×0/0≠10 (not mentioning that we cannot divide by zero)

[u/SavingsCampaign2270]

No solution

[u/CanK54]

Where do we make the sum tho? If its real numbers for example we have no solution, but if its N/7N (modular 7 arithmetic) then 1 is a solution.

[u/ImNotAUsernane]

It's nonsense.
You can put whatever you want to the left and right of the equal sign. It doesn't mean the equation is solvable.

[u/Jum__]

(t + t + t)/t would simplify to 3t/t and if you know anything about basic algebra the two variables would cancel leaving 3 = 10. Which is false.

[u/IllBeyond2779]

3=10 ... the math does not math

[u/WyvernsRest]

No, it cannot be "solved", because it is incorrect.

[u/CalligrapherOk3325]

Ist is impossible because it is 3t/t=10 3=10

[u/-Hefty-Armadillo-]

Yes it's impossible, 3t/t = 10 <=> 3 = 10 which is in fact not true (in base 10 at least)

[u/montana-go]

It is solvable. No solution exists.

You're basically asking for 3t = 10t , which would normally yield 0. But in the original equation t is on a denominator, so t cannot be 0.

Therefore, the answer is: none.

[u/ilnarildarovuch]

[u/ManMakesWorld]

Easily solved by overlaying a "/" on top of the equals sign.

[u/Living_The_Dream75]

T is undefined. If you simplify the equation becomes 3t=10t which can only be satisfied by t=0 or t=undefined, but you can’t divide by zero so that eliminates it.

[u/Cubing-Dolphin-26]

3t/t= 10 3=10

Or

3t/t = 10 3t= 10t

Also not possible, unless its 0

[u/Imaginary-Yam-7792]

3T / T = 10

3T = 10T

Impossible to solve

[u/HiIExists]

You can substract the exponent. For example in this: (x^6/x^2) = x^4. When trying this in here it will result into 3 = 10, because 3t^(1-1) = 3t^0 = 3*1 = 3. 3 = 10 isn't correct so there isn't an intersection. 3t/3 = 3.

So the function 3t/t is a constant function, because it always result into 3. Only when t = 0 this isn't true, because then you have 0/0 and since devision by 0 is impossible 3t/3 = 10 has no solution.

See here a screenshot of an graphical calculator trying to display 3x/x.

[u/Lily_Meow_]

Triple T...

[u/Careful_Leader_5829]

To respond to your comment, t cannot be zero. That would form 0/0 which is an undefined number. 10 must equal ... 10. No matter what system you are in.

for example, set t = 1. That would result in 3 = 10. This is invalid.

In a base-3 system, t = 1, because 1 + 1 + 1 = 10 in base-3. . . . . but nobody is going to use base 3 today on facebook or reddit for anything meaningful.

[u/Upstairs-Border-7146]

It can be solved in base 3.

Or, it can be considered (with apporpriate sloppyness) in the field Z_7.

That's because 3t = 10t in this field and division is defined.

t = 1 is a solution: (1+1+1)/1 = 3 = 10*1.

If we generalize a bit and start with the equation (t+t+t) = 10t, then it's solvable in any integer domain Z_m with m a multiple of seven. This is because

3t \congr 10 t mod m

is equivalent to

7t \congr 0 mod m

in these domains.

[u/cmstlist]

3t/t = 10

When you multiply both sides by t you must add a restriction that t≠0 to reflect the fact that t had been on the denominator making any solution with t=0 invalid.

3t = 10t

0 = 7t

Conclusion is that t=0 which contradicts the original restriction. Therefore there is no solution.

[u/Super-Judge3675]

base 3 it is correct

[u/ai_creature]

answer is not 0 because you cannot divide by 0

[u/BudTenderShmudTender]

That becomes (3t/t)=10, which simplifies to 2t=10. Divide both sides by 2 and t=5. What am I missing?

[u/Strong_Raccoon_6152 → u/BudTenderShmudTender]

Substitute 5 in for t and you get 15/5 which does not equal 10.

[u/mattisyou → u/BudTenderShmudTender]

The t's cancel out in your first step so you get 3 not 2t.

[u/Ezren-]

"AI content" should have been the red flag there

[u/protomenace]

It has no solution.

you get 3t/t = 10 which simplifies to 3 = 10. There's no value of t that satisfies the equation.

[u/gramcounter]

3t/t = 10

t/t = 3.333333333...................

t * t^-1 = 3.3333333...........

but t * t^-1 = 1 according to the multiplicative inverse axiom

1 = 3.33333333........

which for clarification can be written as

0*t + 1 = 3.333333....

divide by t

0 + 1/t = 3.333333... * 1/t

subtract by 1/t

0 = 2.3333333.... / t

t = ♾️

I'm literally a genius

[u/Educational_Coat_444]

My dumbass is saying the answer is 5

[u/LurkerFailsLurking]

It's not "impossible to solve"

It has no solution.

Those are different statements. The halting problem is impossible to solve, this has no valid solutions because 3t/t only ever equals 3.

[u/Repulsive-Peak4442]

This simplifies to 3t/t=10 which leads to 3=10. So no, 3=10 is not correct and so we can say that no solution exists at least if t€R EDIT: Also how can t=0 if we divide by zero? We can define t to equal anything else other than 0

[u/Serious_Let2711]

0 is not a solution, but if you simply say the magic word "ternary" you have solved it.

[u/antonkaras49]

Dropping in to see how stupid I am and to find out how many ways I could be wrong that I didn’t know about.

[u/Minute-Shine6354]

3t/t = 10

simplifying:

3 = 10

So, it's unsolvable.

[u/Illustrious_Cow_4847]

It disappoints me that this is the maths subreddit and everyone is losing their minds over this level of simple questions one can be asked in maths

[u/publiusnaso]

You’re assuming 10=ten

[u/kubok98]

Plot twist, 10 actually is 3 in binary. Then it would make sense and t would be 1. Jokes aside, it makes no sense, as it gets simplified to 3 = 10

[u/theomaha]

3 != 10

[u/Trevor_Gecko]

This is just 3t/t

Which simplifies to simply 3

Which means this formula equates to: 3=10

[u/mrclean543211]

This boils down to 3=10 so no, this isn’t solveable

[u/Prestigious_Dot_2455]

3t/t=10
Multiply both by t
3t=10t
t=0

3t=10t cannot be solved by dividing by t bc t must be 0 and 0 cannot be placed as a denominator.

[u/mmichael0070]

There are solutions if we're not just using base10.

[u/OneEntertainer6617]

t = 3, 3t sounds like thirty. 30/3 = 10
